SCHEDULE II
(See Section 123)
USEFUL LIVES TO COMPUTE DEPRECIATION
|
Notified Date of Section: 01/04/2014
|
|
PART ‘A’
1. Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life. The depreciable amount of an asset is the cost of an asset or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. The useful life of an asset is the period over which an asset is expected to be available for use by an entity, or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the entity.
2. For the purpose of this Schedule, the term depreciation includes amortisation.
3. Without prejudice to the foregoing provisions of paragraph 1,—
1 & 4[(i) The useful life of an asset shall not ondinarily be different from the useful life specified in Part C and the residual value of an asset shall not be more than five per cent. of the original cost of the asset:
Provided that where a company adopts a useful life different from what is specified in Part C or uses a residual value different from the limit specified above, the financial statements shall disclose such difference and provide justification in this behalf duly supported by technical advice";]
7["(ii) For intangible assests, the relevant Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) shall apply. Where a compmany is not required to comply with the Indian Accounting Standrads (Ind AS), it shall comply with relevant Accounting Standrads under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006."], except in case of intangible assets (Toll Roads) created under ‘Build, Operate and Transfer’, ‘Build, Own, Operate and Transfer’ or any other form of public private partnership route in case of road projects.
Amortisation in such cases may be done as follows:-
(a) Mode of amortisation
|
Amortisation Rate =
|
Amortisation Amount
--------------------------------------
|
x 100
|
|
Cost of Intangible Assets (A)
|
Amortisation Amount =
|
Cost of Intangible Assets (A) x
|
Actual Revenue for the year (B)
---------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Projected Revenue from Intangible Asset
(till the end of the concession period) (C)
|
(b) Meaning of particulars are as follows :-
|
Cost of Intangible Assets (A) =
|
Cost incurred by the company in accordance with the accounting standards.
|
|
Actual Revenue for the year (B) =
|
Actual revenue (Toll Charges) received during the accounting year.
|
|
Projected Revenue from Intangible Asset (C) =
|
Total projected revenue from the Intangible Assets as provided to the project lender at the time of financial closure / agreement.
|
The amortisation amount or rate should ensure that the whole of the cost of the intangible asset is amortised over the concession period.
Revenue shall be reviewed at the end of each financial year and projected revenue shall be adjusted to reflect such changes, if any, in the estimates as will lead to the actual collection at the end of the concession period.

Based on this the charge for first year would be Rs. 4.16 Crore (approximately) (i.e. Rs. 5/Rs. 600 x Rs. 500 Crores) which would be charged to profit and loss and 0.83% (i.e. Rs. 4.16 Crore/ Rs. 500 Crore x 100) is the amortisation rate for the first year.
Where a company arrives at the amortisation amount in respect of the said Intangible Assets in accordance with any method as per the applicable Accounting Standards, it shall disclose the same.]

Notes.—
1. "Factory buildings" does not include offices, godowns, staff quarters.
2. Where, during any financial year, any addition has been made to any asset, or where any asset has been sold, discarded, demolished or destroyed, the depreciation on such assets shall be calculated on a pro rata basis from the date of such addition or, as the case may be, up to the date on which such asset has been sold, discarded,demolished or destroyed.
3. The following information shall also be disclosed in the accounts, namely:—
(i) depreciation methods used; and
(ii) the useful lives of the assets for computing depreciation, if they are different from the life specified in the Schedule.
5[4(a) Useful life specified in part C of the schedule is for whole of the asset and where cost of a part of the asset is significant to total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different from the useful life of the remaining asset, useful life of that significant part shall be determined separately.
(b) The requirement under sub-paragraph (a) shall be voluntary in respect of the financial year commencing on or after the 1st April, 2014 and mandatory for financial statements in respect of financial years commencing on or after the 1st April, 2015]
3[5. Depreciable amount is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Ordinarily, the residual value of an asset is often in significant but it should generally be not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset.]
6. The useful lives of assets working on shift basis have been specified in the Schedule based on their single shift working. Except for assets in respect of which no extra shift depreciation is permitted (indicated by NESD in Part C above), if an asset is used for any time during the year for double shift, the depreciation will increase by 50% for that period and in case of the triple shift the depreciation shall be calculated on the basis of 100% for that period.
7. From the date this Schedule comes into effect, the carrying amount of the asset as on that date—
(a) shall be depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset as per this Schedule;
(b) after retaining the residual value, 6[may be recognized] in the opening balance of retained earnings where the remaining useful life of an asset is nil.
8. ‘‘Continuous process plant’’ means a plant which is required and designed to operate for twenty-four hours a day.
