CENVAT Credit Rules do not prescribe any time limit for availing CENVAT credit on capital goods. It only states that CENVAT credit on Capital Goods must be taken maximum @ 50% in the same financial and remaining in subsequent year. Time limit of 1year from invoice date is not applicable in case of Capital Goods.
Hence, if CENVAT credit on capital goods has not been taken in the same financial year, full CENVAT credit may be taken in the next financial year.
However, it must be noted that depreciation must be taken on (Asset value (-) CENVAT credit).
