Ammortization of goodwill

This query is : Resolved 

06 September 2010 is ammortization of goodwill a deductible business expenditure?
and what difference would it make if its self generated goodwill and not purchased goodwill??

12 September 2010 If goodwill is purchased, then it will take the charector of intangible assets, eligible for depreciation/ amortisation.

however, in case of self generaed goodwill, the cost is nil. Logically, notional amortisation not permitted as per law.

14 September 2010 But section 2(11) of IT Act gives list of asset(tangible and intangible) and it doesnt cover goodwill...whether self generated or acquired. so what would be the treatment

06 December 2010 Goodwill is not an eligible intangible asset for claiming depreciation u/s 32 of Income Tax Act,1961.
