How about an Asset for which the advance is given, asset is delivered but not installed, would the said amount be lying under advance given to capital work in progress. This is specifically for an asset which is not installed for substantial period before the cut of date (i.e 31st March(

The said asset is not ready for the intended use as interior is still is progress. So, it does not meet the criteria of ready for use. Hence, it will be shown as CWIP in books.
