Depreciation under Companies Act is charged on the basis of number of days.
In case of sale of an asset, depreciation shall be calculated from 1st April to date of sale.
In case of acquisition, depreciation shall be calculated from date of acquisition to 31st March.

1. Charge depreciation up to the date of sale.
2. Provide 2 days depreciation presuming accounts are closed on 31/03/2012.

Sirs,
Thanks for the prompt reply...but still i have a confusion that ...
1. for the assets installed before 15th of a month should i charge a full month's dep?
For Example:
date of installation is 14th Jan 2012 so dep would be:
(value of asset*rate of dep)
__________________________ * 3 months
12*100
2. For the assets installed after 15th of the month, should i charge dep for the half of the same month.
For example:
date of installation is 20th jan 2012 so dep value would be:
value of asset * rate of dep
_____________________________ * 2.5 months
12*100
Kindly clarify.

As I said, calculate depreciation on the basis of NUMBER OF DAYS.
First Calculate the number of days
Then calculate the depreciation.
First Calculate the number of days
Then calculate the depreciation.
