09 May 2011 Hi

My father is doing the business and he is taxable income is around 3 lac/annum. He is rented house which is in his name. Shall we claim depreciation for this rented house? @what percentage?

Also shall we reduce this depreciation value from his annual taxable income.
For example

Annual income - 3,00,000 - A
depreciation on - 50,000 - B
rented house

Total Taxable income - 2,50,000 (A-B)
shall we consider the taxable income is only 2,50,000. This is just my assumption. kindly correct me if i am wrong.

Thanks for your valuable information.
