Dear Team, If we purchase an Assets in Mumbai under merchant export to Bhutan under GST rate @.1% and transport the goods at our cost to Guwahati and further to Thimpu in Bhutan. Then how to capitalise cost of transport upto Guwahati on Assets at Thimpu, Bhutan. Thanks Dilip Baranwal

For assets purchased under the merchant export scheme and ultimately intended for use in Bhutan, all directly attributable transportation costs up to Thimphu should be added to the asset’s cost and capitalized under AS-10/Ind AS 16. The concessional GST rate of 0.1% has no impact on the accounting treatment of capitalization.
