Governments facilitated tax planning here

Let’s say a commercial or industrial user, Example Pvt. Ltd., falls under an income tax bracket of 30%. Now lets say this user builds a general asset that is valued at Rs. 1 Crore in a given financial year, with an expected asset life of 20 yrs. Under normal circumstances, the user will be able to claim an annual depreciation of 5% of Rs. 1.0 Crore (considering linear depreciation, 100%/20yr = 5%/yr). for purpose of income tax.

This implies that the user will be able to claim tax benefit of 30% of 5% of Rs. 1.0 Crore per year = Rs. 1.5 Lakh per year for next 20 years.

However, when the investment is made in a Solar Plant, the user is allowed to depreciate the asset at 40%, thereby allowing the user to completely depreciate the asset within three years term, and saving a tax of Rs. 12 Lakh, Rs. 12 Lakh and Rs. 6 Lakh in the first, second and third year of operation respectively.

Depreciation on solar power plant is 40% and additional depreciation will be 20% for additional purchase and 50% of depreciation will be applicable if purchase is after September

Can’t agree less about 180 days policy

Why???

It means, new purchase depreciation after half year policy will be followed.

40% is the rate of depreciation, if the same is used less than or equal to180 days then the rate of depreciation is 20%

I already read that from you online resources
