Tax queries 329 views 7 replies

Dear Friends

The assessee purchased  Furniture, Vessels & Utensils every year for rental purpose.  Can we capitalize these assets and claim depreciation or it should be treated as stock in trade. If we treat as stock in trade, every year purchases added with stock and there is no sales.  And rental income derived from these assets can be shown as business income. Please advise correct method of accounting under Income Tax

What is the nature of business??
letting on hire furniture and utensils am I correct???
if my presumption is correct then income derived from letting on hire these furniture and utensils are rental income.

Nature of business is letting on hire furniture & utensils. How can I account in my books when these assets are purchased, whether accounted under fixed assets and claim depreciation or stock in trade 

Till the instalment are nit fully paid asstes purchased on hire purchase.Not capitalized.

Assets purchased out of their own funds. These assets used for rental purpose only. There is no hire purchase or Instalment. Whether these assets can be accounted in Balance Sheet under fixed assets and claim depreciation or treated as stock in hand. These rental income taxable under House Property or Business Income.  Please clarify

 

You hv purchased assets on rental basis . you cannot show it balance sheet.

Sir

The assets are not purchased on rental basis.The assets like furnitures, vessels,etc.,purchased out of his own funds.  The assessee's nature of business is letting out furnitures,vessels on rent.My question is

1.How to account the assets purchased in the balance sheet. Whether accounted under fixed assets and claim depreciation or accounted under stock in trade. If it is accounted as stock in trade, stock value increased year to year when these assets are purchased every year.

2.These rental income is business income or other sources.

Please advise the experts.

Thanks.
