Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether CCTV cameras installed in an office or factory are classified as plant and machinery for tax depreciation purposes. While factory CCTV cameras may qualify for additional depreciation under Section 32(1)(iia) if other conditions are met, those in office premises generally do not, as they are not directly used in the production of goods.

Not available since it's not used in production of goods.
As per (b) of second proviso to Section 32(1)(iia), if all other conditions are fulfilled, then additional depreciation on CCTV cameras at factory will be available but that at office will not be available.
This is because additional depreciation on plant & machinery at office premises is not available.
This is my humble opinion.
