 par with the life of Continuous process plant as envisaged in
 Schedule XIV to Companies Act, 1956. Such change in life of assets has
 been considered from 1.4.93 i.e. from the year of introduction of
 Continuous process plant in Schedule XIV to Companies Act, 1956.

 guidelines issued under Circular No.14/93 dated, 20.12.93 by Department
