The investment in shop is Capital Expenditure.Hence deduction can not be claimed.To get benefit of deduction, the possibility is Depreciation on Shop.But to claim such depreciation, construction has to be completed and the business has to be started before 31.3.2012.Depreciation may be half of the Normal depreciation.Hope accordingly you can plan tax.
