13 August 2009 Looking at ur q'ns i was also very curious as to wat ur business is. But that has been answered.
It i correctly remeber the answer to the q's are as follows:
1. Section 36(1)(vi) of the IT Act provides as follows:
(vi) in respect of animals which have been used for the purposes of the business or profession otherwise than as stock-in-trade and have died or become permanently useless for such purposes, the difference between the actual cost to the assessee of the animals and the amount, if any, realised in respect of the carcasses or animals would be allowed as a deduction. Hence you will have to write off the cost of the cow.
How much can u claim from insurance company that the insurance co. can suggest u.
The additional cows that u got will be like bonus shares, only increase in number but no cost, i. e. free of cost.

2. U can treat is a WIP but as i already said the cost will be zero

3. Like bonus shares only increase in no. and no increase in cost.
