Hi PSD Rajan,
I have setup the depreciation key as you have specified with the multi level method parameters and base method 0016 (immediate depreciation) and it works very well, exactly how i wanted to be... :-). Thank you very much for the help.

OK, here is what you do. Set the reduction as:
1 40 (will give you 60 percent immediate reduction)
2 70 (will give you 30 percent immediate reduction)
3 90 (will give you 10 percent immediate reduction)
