1999 (2) TMI 11 - SC - Income Tax
Assessee, a medical practitioner runs a nursing home - in respect of the building in which the nursing home is run, the assessee claimed, for the assessment year 1983-84, that it was a plant - held that assessee is entitled to depreciation at higher rate on the nursing home building on the ground that it is a plant
The Supreme Court upheld the decision that a nursing home building can be considered a 'plant' for depreciation purposes if equipped for business activities like treating patients. The functional test was applied, and the appeal was dismissed. (Case citation: 1999 (2) TMI 11)
