If the mobile is used for business purposes then it must be capitalised and depreciated as per applicable rates.. if it is used for personal purposes it must be charged to the respective personal account..

First of all we have to see that what would be the use of the mobile? If mobile is exclusively use for the business or professional purposes than it may be capitalised, if the cost of mobile is more than 5000.
If the mobile is for the personal and business purposes both then it can not be capitalised, only depreciation can be charged on the basis of use for the business. The applicable rate of depreciation is 15%.

AS WE ALL KNOW THAT EXP THAT INCURRED IN ONE TIME IS KNOWN AS CAPITAL EXP, BUT EXP INCURRED REGULAR BASIS THAT SHOULD HAVE TO CHARGE REVENUE EXP. HERE MOBILE PURCHASED SHALL HAVE TO BE TREATED AS CAPITAL EXPENDITURE.
