DEpreciation will be charged on Rs.55000 from 20th Jan as asset was ready to use only after installation.

Yes, depreciation will be charged from 20th Jan 2011 on Rs. 55000/-
The relevant date for charging depreciation is the date on which the asset is ready for use. Put to use date is irrelevant for depreciation purposes. In the above case, the asset cannot work unless it is installed. Thus, 20 Jan is the date on which the asset is ready for use and the relevant depreciable amount is INR 55,000.
