This query is : Resolved 

12 September 2012 if i purchase a watch costing rs 5000 for my personal use and then i studded two diamonds in the watch costing rs 50,000 then watch will be treated as capital asset r not if yes what will be the cost of acqusition

13 September 2012 Personal assets are NOT covered in the definition of capital asset.

However, personal assets DO NOT include jewellery. Jewellery includes precious stones studded in any wearing apparel.

Accordingly your diamond studded watch is a capital asset.

The cost of acquisitions shall be Rs. 5,000 and cost of improvement shall be Rs. 50,000
