Rent paid in Abroad for Machinery used in India

Dear All,

I, as a partnership firm, have taken machinery on rent from abroad for 3 years. Machinery is in India and rent has to be paid in Abroad. I need to pay Minimum $ 14,000/- per month as rent amount. I need to pay more if production will be increased in future.

Can I treat it as revenue expenditure or capital expenditure?

My Opinion in ur case

See frnd this case can be like that

A hired a m/c & upto 50% capacity it is $14000 rent. If futher Inc in production than it rent will be increased

In such a case $14000 will be capitalised  & excess paid ll be treated as Royalti Paid which shd b debited from P & L A/c.   

Here u ll be ignoring proviso of AS 10 i.e. if any exp inc capacity of production or exp due to increased capacity shd b capitalised.. . . . .

The amount paid is in nature of Rent and you are not owner of machinery. No doubt it is a Revenue Expenditure.
