Hi naresh

The rate of depriciation on electronic cars as per IT Act is 15% pa and it is included in the definition of 'Plant' as per SEc 43(3) of IT Act.

As per the Income Tax Act the Electronic Car comes in the Block of machinery and Plant which is chageable @ 15%

As per the New Companies act the Depreciation is chargeable on the basis of Useful Life of Asset, hence the Elctronic car should be depreciated on the basis of its useful life

Can anyone tell me what is the rate of annual depreciation for the Sethoscope (a medical equipment/instrument and whether it can be treated as a life-saving equipment?

Life saving equipments have been specified under income tax rules and therein Stethoscope is not covered.

Hence 15%

Dear Z, for Stethoscope, th rate of depreciation as shown here is 15%  whereas the email which I have received from this website shows it as 30% (pdf copy of the email is attached here). Please clarify whether it is 15% or 30% for Stethoscope. Thanks

15% (General rate)

I by mistake typed 30% but I updated it within 4-5 seconds

See rule 5 [Income tax rules] for more details
