" Qualifying Asset" means an asset which takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.  As an example we can say Power plant, Toll Bridge etc.

But in case of Inventory which are used on repetitive basis or over a short period of time are not qualifying assets. In other hand inventories which take a considerable period of time to bring to a salable condition will be treated as " Qualifying Asset "
