Dericiation rate & category-leasehold improvments as per it

This query is : Resolved 

22 November 2012 What should be the rate of Depreciation for the Leasehold Improvemets under Income Tax Act and in which block of assets it should be classify.


Thanx in Advance


22 November 2012 Provide the exact transaction / details

because rent for the leasehold premises go to Revenue Expenditure directly....

22 November 2012 its some infrastructure work in the building taken on rent.Rent is never a leasehold improvment.


22 November 2012 CHECK POINT NO. 3 (Below in Note) and take decision accordingly.
