Mr. Sandip
Year in which assets is sold depreciation will not be allowed. Than second point if Sales the assets above WDV there will be business profit. and above cost price will be the STCG if block is NIL In other case If U hav other assets in the same block U calculate like this :
1. 01..04 WDV
2, addition 180 days or more (+)
3. sales consideratiobn if any (-)
( out of WDV & addition )
4. Toal ( 1+2-3 )
a. ( depreciaton on this value at full rate )
5. Addition less than 180 days (+)
6. Sales consideration (-)
( out of addition less tan 180 days)
7. Total
b. (depreciation 1/2 rate on less than
180 days ( 5-6)
7. Total ( 4 +7)
8. Total Depreciation a +b
WDV 31.03. ( 7-8)

CALCULATION OF STCG
WDV 1.4.08 5.23
LESS: SALE VALUE 8.79
STCG 3.56
DEP.NOT ALLOWABLE IN THE YEAR OF SALE. IF ANY NEW ASSETS HAVE BEEN PURCHASED IN THE SAME BLOCK, THE COST OF THE NEW ASSETS WILL BE LOWERED BY 3.56 & NO STCG WILL BE TAXABLE.
