Check the link for the depreciation rates on different assets.
For the asset put to use on 20th jan, As per the Income Tax Act, you can claim depreciation for half of the year i.e 180 days. However, as per the companies Act, the depreciation will be given proportiontely to the number of days in use in the Financial year.
