No, the benefit of Multiple Shift will not be given to Ship used for more than 1 shift as per the Explanatory Statement by Ministry of Corporate Affairs which specifically marks this assets as No Extra Shift Depreciation & hence the Rate given by Mr. Chintan Vasa is Correct. For any query feel free to raise.
