Hey buddy according to as -19 if lease is in nature of  finance lease than  for sure expenditure incurred on construction can be classified as capital expenditure. I will send you more detailed explanation after some time .

thank u sir. please if u can reply me with reference to circular 2/2001

HI, you should go by act and read the second proviso the section32 where it is clearly explained that amount spent on construction or incurring any expenditure on leased asset is 100% eligible for depreciation .
