26 June 2013 Depreciation to be calculated on both basis.

When Balance sheet is made for income tax purpose, the depreciation as per Income tax will be made.

Then there will be short term capital loss of Rs 23467 (2560-26027), no depreciation in the year of sale.

When books are made under companies act. Then depreciation as per companies rate till the date of sale on companies WDV 25957, then such depreciation is deducted from Opening Company WDV, then such net amount is compared to sale consideration for the calculation on loss or gain,
