A company shifted itself to new premises.The assets of old premises appearing in accounts proved worthless.The company is neither in a position to sell these assets nor it is able to use them.How these worthless assets be treated in accounts??

As long as you dispose these assets you have to charge depreciation on these assets.
Since these assets became use less you have to apply the concept of impairment and make provision in your account as per AS-29.

If you can sell the assets (even as scrap at nominal value ) you can get rid of it and can also book st capital loss. Otherwise also you can write off them in p&l as impairment loss (as asset carry no realisable value).
