Is the rate of depreciation on new purchases and second hand purchases the same?

Last updated: 19 May 2021
Quick Summary
This case concerns the depreciation rate for windmills purchased and installed by a company. The assessee claimed an 80% depreciation rate on used windmills installed before April 1, 2012, based on pre-amended tax rules. However, the Assessing Officer reduced this to 15%, arguing that only windmills installed after April 1, 2012, were eligible for the lower rate, and denied the higher depreciation claimed.
