No. 171 of 2009 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 29th day of June, 2009 J U D G M E N T ---------------------- Ramachandran Nair,J. Question raised is whether assessee was rightly granted higher rate of depreciation by CIT (Appeal) which was confirmed by Tribunal. We notice that the claim made was allowed by appellate authorities based on the certificate issued by the prescribed authority which is a Government of India Department in terms of Rule 5(2). The Assessing Officer has rightly pointed out that though the assessee has a foreign collaboration agreement nothing is spent for acquisition of know- how. Admittedly know how is developed by an Indian Company. We therefore do not find any substantial question of law arising from the appellate order. Consequently the appeal is dismissed.
