this would b wrt as2, added to cost till it's brought to the location & condition decided by the management as16 = intrest would not form part of the cost since less than 12month, if loan taken any wrt this asset QA = isnt purchased it's manufactured by the Co itself

is asset manufactured by the Co or is it purchased ? if asset manufactured by the Co then all those cost incurred to bring the asset to its present location and condition, only those cost will be capitalised (put to use don't matter) any cost incurred after that will be pl if the asset is purchased then only pur price will be cost other cost pl

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, or production of a qualifying asset should be capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. So if 4 months is considered to be a substantial period of time (generally less than 12 months is not considered to be substantial), then you can capitalise.
