16 August 2013 Discount given by Seller has been deducted from Fixed Asset in Books of Accounts and Depreciation calculated accordingly.

Now for Income Tax purpose will it be deducted from Gross Block?

16 August 2013 The amount AFTER discount will be capitalised in the books and the same amount shall be used for calculating depreciation as per Income Tax Act.
