It is classified as Operating Lease. (IAS - Leases)

Finance lease and Capital lease are same only difference is that in Capital lease - Lessor agrees to transfer the ownership rights to the lessee after the completion of the lease period where as in Finance lease there is only an option to transfer the ownership rights to the lessee after the completion of the lease period.
