Capital gain will arise if due to sale of the machinery, the block of assets ceases to exist. That is, if there is no other in that block then capitl gain will arise.
If this machinery is the only asset in the block, you can purchase another asset. In that case, the block will continue to exist.
Further, disposal of depreciable asset will always attract short term capital gain.
