25 February 2016 Dear Sir,

That 10% is applicable for general electrical fittings.
For Enegy saving devices Depreciation is 80%. LED lights are used to save electricity as energy savers. So, I have a doubt that the depreciation of 80% is applicable for this or not.

Please clarify

25 February 2016 To claim 80%, two conditions are to be satisfied, viz.,
i) it should be 'plant and machinery'
ii) it should come under any of the items mentioned in clause III (8) (ix) (A) to (G) of Appendix-I
Have a 2nd thought in the light of the above observation.
