Depreciation of Building

This query is : Resolved 

23 July 2024 Greetings,

I would like to inform that as per company act depreciation on factory building useful life is 30 Years. Company has freedom to reduce the time if 2/3 shift working at factory premises. Company has been charging depreciation as per useful life of assets 30 Years since last 12 years. Where building construction on plot on lease. Lease from group of company. Lease period is 10 years.

Now New internal auditor pointed out that lease is 10 years then useful life of building should be 10 years not 30 years which is charged depreciation since last 12 years. Our statutory audit is big-4 .

My Query is can I change % depreciation rate and reduce useful life of assets from 30 years to next 10 years.

I have raised a query only in point of view of Company Act and Not income Tax act point of view.

Can you help me?

Regards,

Choudhari

If lease not extended you can sell the building as life of the building will be 30 years.
