Depreciation should be levied by income tax act or company act. Suppose value of any fixed assets is Rs.1,50,000/- and after some time depreciation is also Rs.1,50,000/-, at the time of closing books. Then we can show that fixed assets in book or not. What are the rates of depreciation applicable under both of the acts? Please help me out.

In practice WDV method is followed. In books we provide depreciation as per companies act, but while calculating income from business for income tax calculation we take depreciation as per income tax act.
