01 March 2012 Query regarding calculation of depreciation on block of assets.
(a) WDV of Assets 1,2,3 as on 01.04.10 = Rs.5091/-. (b)Addition of Asset 4 purchased on 29.06.10 = Rs.17600/-, (c)Addition of Asset 5 purchased on 18.02.2011 (in the second half of AY) = Rs.26850/-, (d) Sale consideration of Asset 4 on 02.02.11 (in the second half of AY) = Rs.7000/-. I shall appreciate if someone could offer his expertise in calculating depreciation in case of the above example. Also, is it true that depreciation is not allowed if a Asset from Block of Assets is sold either during the first or second part of AY?
