Study
on Review of Energy Conservation Equipments
for Depreciation Benefits
Bureau
of Energy Efficiency has initiated a study
on Fiscal Incentives on Energy Saving Equipments/Devices.
A study to review the existing depreciation
incentives on energy conservation equipments/devices
has been entrusted to North India Technical
Consultancy Services (NITCON), Chandigarh.
During the last decade, several new energy
saving devices have been developed and used
in industry, commercial and domestic sectors.
In order to increase the penetration of these
technologies which have initial cost on the
higher side, require fiscal incentives such
as depreciation for income tax purposes.
The study intends to :
1. Review the existing list of Energy Efficient equipments for depreciation
benefits and
2. Identify New equipments/ devices that could be included under the
incentive scheme.
The findings of the study would form the basis for formulating a policy
frame work at the National level on the depreciation benefit/ incentives
being offered for energy conservation equipments.
In view of the importance of the study, it is very essential to have
first hand information from all the interested parties in this regard.
Accordingly, three brief questionnaires (Industry, Equipment Supplier,
Consultant), which may be duly filled-in and forwarded to us through
e-mail. You may select any one of the three questionnaires as appropriate.
Questionnaires have been designed to seek information on above energy
saving devices from industrial users, manufacturers and consultants.
These questionnaires are designed in visual basic for filling the same
in user-friendly manner. These Questionnaires can be downloaded on your
computer for making the entries. At the end of the programme it generates
a text file on your computer in`C’ Drive. You are requested to
email this file to :
If you need any further assistance
direct your queries to NITCON, Chandigarh.Your
timely response would be of great help to us
and to the Industry as a whole. We thank you
in advance for your responses.
