As-13 is applicable for invetment in land and bilding subject to the investment made with an intention to earn capital appreciation.

for ex..if a company purchased a building not for its bussiness but for earning rent by letting out, then it is not a fixed asset ,it is regarded as investment as per AS-13

Hope you clarly understand with this example
