As per the proviso of AS-16, the example of assets are plants, intangible assets(Development Phase), Investment in properties and inventories (Excluding the routine inventiories)
As u said as the assets fulfill the requirement of "substantial period" the asset is qualifying asset. So, any borrowing cost regarding to the Qualifying asset should be captitalised.
It will be against AS-16, if such expense is charged to P&L a/c so it should be capitalised.
