Is there any clarification regarding the same in Income Tax Act, if yes can you please provide the reference of same...
Thank you in advance..




09 August 2012 the concept of “actual cost” is relevant only in the year of acquisition of asset. The concept of actual cost generally does not survive in the second & subsequent years. Additional depreciation is computed with reference to actual cost’. If the concept of actual cost does not survive in the second year, whether the balance of additional depreciation which is based on actual cost would survive?
The words “shall be allowed” refers to the mandatory nature of deduction for Additional Depreciation.
