05 September 2012 * For printer no specific rate of duty is given in depreciation schedule, therefore as a general practice people charge a rate of duty of 60% which is specified for computer.
* And for the other machineries, as no specific rate of depreciation is given , therefore general rate of 15% should be applied. (as per my point of view)

05 September 2012 As per dep schedule the minimum dep to be charged on machinery is 15% which ranges to 100% depending upon the nature of such machine. Charging dep @ 10% is wrong.
