Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies depreciation treatment under the Profit and Gains from Business or Profession (PGBP) head. Specifically, it addresses assets purchased in a previous financial year but put to use in the current year. The key takeaway is that the 180-day rule for claiming full depreciation applies only to the year the asset is first put to use, not the year of purchase.

Depends upon type of fixed assets
Means for example if it is Machine with general rate of 15% is there
in that case if such machine is purchased in last year ie 19-20 and put to use in 20-21 and also less than 180 days than what will be the depreciation rate 15 or 7.5%

15% depreciation 

What is the reason because if it is used for less than 180days then half depreciation shall come right than why full depreciation is taken in this case
Days of use (180) to be considered in first year only..
