Tribunal allows depreciation on plant & machinery under Technology Up-gradation Fund Scheme
The Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, allowing the depreciation claimed on plant and machinery purchased under the Technology Up-gradation Fund Scheme. The Tribunal held that texturising and twisting activities are part of processing and are eligible for depreciation under Income Tax Rules. Previous judgments supported the assessee's claim, leading to the deletion of the disallowed depreciation amount for the assessment year 2005-06.
Issues involved: The judgment involves the disallowance of depreciation claimed on machineries purchased under the Technology Up-gradation Fund Scheme (TUFS) of the Government of India for the assessment year 2005-06.
Issue 1: Disallowance of depreciation The Assessing Officer (AO) disallowed depreciation claimed on plant and machinery under TUFS, stating that the higher depreciation claimed was not eligible under Income Tax Rules. The CIT(A) confirmed this finding. The Tribunal, however, considered the issue in favor of the assessee based on previous judgments and held that texturising and twisting activities are part of processing, covered under the relevant rules. The Tribunal allowed the claim of the assessee, setting aside the orders of the lower authorities and deleting the entire addition.
