No need to refer explanation 10
Section 43 (1) states that actual cost" means the actual cost of the assets to the assessee, reduced by that portion of the cost thereof, if any, as has been met directly or indirectly by any other person or authority.
explanation 10 is about subsidy or grants

Thanks alot sir,
So it would mean that the liquidated damages received are,
(1) Neither taxable as revenue item,
(2) Nor to be deducted from the actual cost of asset for the purpose of depreciation u/s 32.
That is it has no treatment in income tax.
Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks in advance.

Liquidated Damages are not taxable as revenue items they are treated as capital receipts and are not taxable.
However they same should be deducted from the actual cost if the same was met before the asset was put to use as the same is met by other person
