HI DEAR,
IT SHOULD BE CAPITALISED AS FROM MY POINT OF VIEW.
ANY AMOUNT INCURRED ON THE FIXED ASSET TILL IT IS INSTALLED SHOULD BE CAPITALISED AND DEPRECIATION SHOULD CHARGED ON THAT ONCE TTHE ASSET PUT TO USE.
REGARDS,
MANOJ

Yeah gunjan jain This Expenses is Allowable under Business Expenses...
This is not a Capital Expenses.... Because You Have a Purchase a Machinery and Meet the Relating Expenses are treated as CAPITAL EXPENSE (i.e., AFTER PURCHASE A MACHINERY and INCURED a Expenses for Travelling==This Expenses is Incured the Purpose of Machinery put in office So this are Capital)
Am Righttt....?????

the expenses of travel to go to the usa for negotiating for the purchase of the fixed asset is an expense incurred for buying the asset..so it must be capitalised in to cost of purchase of the asset..so,the cost of travel becomes part of the cost of the asset..

Actual cost includes pre-commencement exp[s so it should be added in the cost of capital asset and depreciation should be claimed on it
