01 July 2009 Hi,
Depreciation is allowable only when it is used. If the business is not going on then no depreciation is allowable.

02 July 2009 As far as my understanding, depreciation should be provided even if business is not carried on.

There will be loss in value due to time factor, obsolescence and normal wear & tare.

In case the business is carried on by company, audit report will state going concern assumption is not held in previous year.
