i read that unabsorbed depreciation can be utilised and set off against ANY head of income. does that even include salary income if a person along with his employement job carries on a business too.

No , unabsorbed depreciation can't be set off against the Salary Head.

Logic :- There can never be any loss under the head of salary. so where there is no loss then why the loss of other head will be utilised under the head of salary.
