It is proposed to provide that the balance 50% of the additional depreciation on new plant or machinery used for less than 180 days, which has not been allowed in the year of acquisition and installation of such plant or machinery shall be allowed in the immediately succeeding year.<\/p>\n
b)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is also proposed to insert a new section 32AD to provide that higher additional depreciation u\/s 32(1.) (iia) at the rate of 35% (instead of 20%) shall be allowed in respect of the actual cost of the new plant or machinery acquired and installed by a manufacturing undertaking or enterprise, which is set up in the notified backward area of the State of Andhra Pradesh or the State of Telangana on or after 1st<\/sup> April 2015.<\/p>\nThis higher additional depreciation shall be available in respect of acquisition of any new machinery or plant during the period beginning on the 1st<\/sup>\u00a0of\u00a0April 2015 and ending before the 1st<\/sup>\u00a0of\u00a0April 2020.

Now, it is proposed to provide that cost of acquisition of capital asset acquired by the
\nresulting company shall be the cost for which the demerged company acquired the capital asset, as increased by the cost of improvement incurred by the demerged company. Consequently, period of holding of such asset in the hands of resulting company will also include the period for which the asset was held by the demerged company.<\/p>\n
