Your client is into real estate business so the estate would be its stock.
Now he purchased the estate but it remained on rent for previous year as company has not yet started any business.
So it can not be said stock until your clint provide you clear indicatina dn suportings that the property is purchsed fr business purpose only.

The house property cannot be treated as stock in trade because it is not being used for business purpose. Further depreciation cannot be claimed. In the B/S asset will be shown as Investment in House Property.
The rent income generated from this property is to be taxable under the head Income from House Property. While calculating the income municipal taxes and deductions under sec24 will be allowed.

The classification of the house at fixed asset is an indication that the company does not want to deal it as stock in trade. A representation of the intention should be obtained. But mere plan to use it as office in a future date would not make it a fixed asset.
If it is a fixed asset, depreciation is to be provided, whether or not it is actually used and benefit derived.
If there is tenancy agreement with tenants,(no matter company actually received no rentals) the rental should be recognized as income and provision may be made if there is uncollectibility.
However, if the case is strongly against the company, and it is unlikely that the company would be able to get the decree in its favor for rental collection, it is advisable not to recognize the rentals. Get the strength of the case from the lawyers and decide by yourself on its merits.
