Normally a period of 12 months is taken as substantial period. Hoever even a lower or higher period can be taken as substatial period if it's justified. Thus it depends on your own analysis of the asset.
Hence asset wich crosses the limit of substantial period will be a qualifying asset.

The assessment of Substantial Period is based on subjective judgement here and may vary from entity to entiy. While recognising borrowing cost in these cases the concept of materiality must be kept in mind.
