Depreciation at a lower rate


This query is : Resolved 

25 November 2009 Can we claim depreciation at a lower rate than that specified in the Income Tax Act,1961 ?

say:-
Depreciation as per the Act - Rs. 102000
Claimed in I.T.R. - Rs. 75000


25 November 2009 No, it's not possible. Whatever rates presc. in Income tax Act are fixed rates & not the minimum or maximum depreciation rates. Further, deduction of depreciation from Income is available even if assessee has claimed or not such deduction. Therefore, you need to claim total depreciation of rs. 102000.

26 November 2009 No, read explanation 5 to section 32

26 November 2009 no

26 November 2009 No., It is not possible. Sec 32 is automatic. even if you did not claim depreciation the AO has to allow it while computing total income from business.
