Detailed Solution & Explanation

To find the depreciation to be charged for the year ended 31st March, 2022:
1. On 1st April, 2021, due to non-fulfillment of conditions, the company refunded the entire grant of 15,00,000\displaystyle `\,15,00,000.
2. Under AS 12, when a grant is refunded, it is added to the carrying amount of the asset. The revised carrying amount is:
Revised Carrying Amount=29,00,000+15,00,000=44,00,000\text{Revised Carrying Amount} = `\,29,00,000 + `\,15,00,000 = `\,44,00,0003. Remaining useful life of the Machine: 102=8\displaystyle 10 - 2 = 8 years.
4. Revised annual depreciation with estimated residual value of 5,00,000\displaystyle `\,5,00,000:
Revised Depreciation=44,00,0005,00,0008=4,87,500\text{Revised Depreciation} = \frac{`\,44,00,000 - `\,5,00,000}{8} = `\,4,87,500
Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.
