09 August 2009 even after asset being obsolete was it in your books of accounts? If yes then you can continue to take the depreciation on the historic cost and later on you can add the current expenses on the assets as an addition to the cost of the asset and then can take depreciation on such enhanced cost too. if you are still not clear then please do let me know.
