Whether it will be adjusted against Plant & Machinery block of assets of Business Unit ‘Y’. In case of Option No. 1 how the same will be reflected in ITR-4. Kindly Help….

you can clubbed asset value for depreciation purpose and adjust with plant and machinery block. There is one case supreme court decisions in BR Limited vs CIT.
