28 May 2010 Dear Friends

I am working with a Manufacturing unit,

and we purchase Frok Lifts for handing the material one place to another within the factory hance we treat it as Plant & machinery.
But as per our Auditors is concerned they advice it is covered under Vehicle and dep charged of Vehicle rate not plant & Machinery.

Fork lift having 4 weels hence it is Vehicle.

But on practical ground it is not a vehicle.

Please advice what is the proper head,
and what is the proper reply for auditors.

28 May 2010 It will be treated as Plant & Machinery or Tool & Equipment.
It is not vehcile.

28 May 2010 You can take example of trollies having 4 wheel, it is also tool & equipment not vechicle.

28 May 2010 AGREE WITH MR. BANSAL

Thanks

20 July 2025 Forklifts should be classified under “Plant & Machinery” and not as “Motor Vehicles,” even if they have wheels.
