1. For accounting purpose you can charge depreciation. But for income tax purpose, depreciation will not be allowed for the year of sale.
2, For accounting purpose can depreciate 7.71.625/- up to 30/07/2017. Like wise, can depreciate 39,50,000 from 31/05/2017. But for income tax purpose depreciate 42,05,851/- ( ie., 7,771,625 + 39,50,000 -- 5,15,774).
