22 June 2015 I just wanted to know,

Whether as per new companies act 2013,should all companies should follow the method of useful life i.e SLM basis.

If any company is following WDV basis for the past years,will that company will need to change the method to SLM mandatorily.

If not please provide the guidance for preparing the Depreciation Schedule as per companies act 2013.
