06 January 2010 First of all there are two concepts here whether ur talking from the point of view of capital gains or the normal deduction ? Pls clarify.

If it relates to capital gains then surely if it is within the specified period as mentioned under section 45 to 55 opf the income tax act then pre-construction cost will be allowed subjec to the limit laid down under the relevent section.

Secondly if it pertains to business deduction then preconstruction cost of borrowed funds needs to be capitalised, and post will be allowed as a revenue deduction...

Should u require any further clarification pls write to ...
