29 March 2015 no depreciation for the year of sale of the asset. So, Depreciation cannot be claimed.

30 March 2015 Yes. You can claim depreciation on your new car.

In case, the period of holding is less than 180 days, then half of the normal rate and more than 180, then normal rate of depreciation i.e., 15%
