No it can't be taken. Because gain on depreciable assets is always taken as STCG ,whereas exemption for 54EC is available only for LTCG.

As rightly mentioned by CA Karandikar, CG on sale/transfer of depreciable assets is STCG and exemption u/s 54EC is available only if original asset transferred is Long Term Capital Asset.
