21 January 2014 hello sir...
my client is a private limited company and while checking the audited balance sheet it was found in notes to accounts , method of deprecation followed was WDV as per IT Act, i.e. 30% on motor vehicle (for hiring) but as per companies act rate (WDV) 40% on motor vehicle (for hiring). please suggest what to do as we can not charge deprecation lower then as mentioned in companies act.

21 January 2014 No it is incorrect. It is the minimum rates given as per the companies act. Company should charged 40% depreciation as per the companies act 1956.
