Yes. You have to charge one day depreciation as per companies act, and as per income tax act you are eligible for 6months depreciation.
Since you are accounting on fag end of the fincancial year you should have proper data and supporting documents with you that the machinery has been installed and utilised on 31st march.

Agreed. A production log sheet of the machine supported by the excise reocrds and a certificate of installation from the vendor / chartered engineer would be required to claim the depreciation as per IT Act.
