I agree with puri misra

Rate of dep. will be 15%. As 30% is for vehicles if assessee has a business of running them on hire. In the present case Assessee is a Cellphone Manufacturer not have a business of giving vehicles on hire. Therefore, Dep.rate is 15%.

I dont why y people are not understanding that dep. rate is 15% on vehicles. 30% is in case of if assessee has a business of giving vehicles on hire which is not as per the present case.

Miss BArkha The Tax Rate on Commercial Vehicles is 30% And On some Commercial Vehicles it depends on the date of purchase. Here nothing is mention hence,we take it as 30%

@ rashmi Gandhi. Commercial Vehicles should be use for hire for dep @ 30% and my query was it is not used for hire. i m using just for transfering of goods to dealers. so its commercial vehicle but not used for hire so 15%. u can look at schedule attached in this discussion..
