01 January 2010 Companies Act follows SLM method of depreciation and the Tax laws follows WDV method.

In Wdv method the depreciation for the initial year is high and lower in the later year....

In SLM it is constant over the period

If the company adopt SLM, then, provision should be taken for Defered tax.
