Depreciation Rate for the Purpose of Income Tax in case of Nursing Home Building to be taken @ 10% or @ 15%?

Replies (3)

According to my knowledge the depreciation rate for building as per Section 32 of the Income Tax act is @ 10% for general buildings and 5% for residential buildings.

The act doesnt specifies a  seperate rate of depreciation for nursing hime building.Hence depreciation rate of 10% shall be applicabe on it.

The medical apparatus and fittings in the building shall be charged to depreciation @ 15%. Similarly Furniture @ 10%.

Thanks,

As per Section 32 of Income Tax Act 1961 Rate of Dep. on any type of Building is 10% if it is used for the Commercial purpose and 5% if it is provided to the Employees for residential purpose by the Assessee.

Since seperate rate is not specified for Nursing home building, i hope it 2b 10%
