2009-10 ....4 quarters *10% each quarter total 40%
2010-11.. 4 quarters *8% each quarter total 32%
total 72%
input credit 2600*72/100=1872
duty to be paid/reversed = 2600-1872= 728

Hello Sir, Thanks 4 ur attention. But same this issue is covered in Nov.2010 CA final Exam as well as in RTP May 2011 issued by ICAI. At both places, our institute take different view in this regards. Now I hv 3 alternates for the IInd Proviso of Rule 3(5) of CENVAT credit rules. So please confirm me finally, because i am attempting this may 2011 exam.
Thanks in Advance.

1) its mentioned in query "eligible as capital goods under the CENVAT credit rules 2004" so i dont put any question of admissibility, as computers are not qualified as capital goods in 90% cases, and to judge the admissibility we need flow chart of process done by Mr. A in his place of business and use of computer system there.
2) it is assumed that computers were put in use on very day from purchase,
the replies above are as per rules and laws subject to 1) and 2) above, i m not a student and have very limited idea of syllebus/ question patterns of ICAI, but at point of taxation and with CBEC i m confident about the admissibility of my reply.

some places the books eleborate 50% credit taken in 1st and 50% credit in 2nd year, but its the rule of use of cenvat credit availed, side by side if the capital asset is transfered in two years 100% credit is available in 1st year, so depriciation rules are not adhared to the 50% its availed on 100% without any confusion.

regarding the admissibility of input credit only the 50% in 1st year and balance in subsequent year applies, not about the capital asset value,
depriciation is allowed on capital asset value, not on input credit, hence the depriciation is to be claimed on goods value, irrespective of facts that input credit is availed in piecemeal or in single installment.
