if the vehicle is purchased for the business purpose (income) than obviously it must be shown in the assets side of balance sheet...whether the asset derives any income or not...

If the person is purchasing the vehicle for Vehicle Hire business than it cannot be shown as asset, since he is using the same for regular business activity.

AS YOU SAY HE PURCHASE VEHICLE FOR BUSINESS ITS BUSINESS ASSETS.
SO CONCLUSION IS THAT YOU SHOULD SHOW THAT AS A ASSET.
