One of the basic conditions to claim depreciation u/s 32 of Income tax act is tht asset should be put to use during financial year...so going by the facts furnished by the company cant claim depreciation..

Dear Veda Prakash,
The answer to your question is no, it cannot claim depreciation as th assest was not in use during financial year.Hence depreciation on that cannot be claimed.

Thank you for the reply but in one of the case law the kerala high court has held that even if the assets is in the state of ready to use we can claim dep.
On this ground is it possible

hi Veda,
although i don't know facts of that case u mentioned but i am sure that it would be the case where business was on and assesse had put the asset for use but in actual never used it and asset was always ready to use. it is not relevant in ur case coz u have stopped business activities.
u can't claim dep. under both acts.
