But in this no cash inflow and we only made revaluation entry? I could not understand because if we invest in assets then there will be return on those assets in which the cash is inflow. So, can you give clarity?

appreciation means increase in value. It may be realised or unrealised. For PPE you follow guidance given under AS10 /Ind AS 16 for revaluation.
