Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the tax treatment when a business laptop, previously used for business and depreciated, is now solely for personal use. The focus is on Income Tax implications under PGBP and Capital Gains, distinguishing it from accounting entries. The advice clarifies how to handle this transition for tax purposes when it's the only laptop in the business.

Laptop used in business should be depreciated and the other laptop for personal use should not be shown in accounts
Eliminate Laptop account by journal entry through capital account.
The question is regarding Income Tax not accounting. And I have clearly mentioned there's only one laptop.

Do not claim depreciation on laptop in tax computation.
