Current repairs classification distinguishes capital expenditure from revenue deductions for building and machinery repairs under income tax rules.
Classification of current repairs determines whether expenditures on buildings and on plant and machinery are revenue deductions or capitalised: enduring benefit or substantial enhancement is capital, while routine restorative or replacement outlays that merely maintain existing earning capacity are revenue; Sections 30 and 31 provide the statutory context for rent, rates, taxes, repairs and insurance for buildings and for machinery, plant and furniture.
