No Depreciation is to be charged as your Block of Asset is bocome Nil i.e all the asset in the block are sold.

As regarrds Profit or loss on sale on fixed asset in your case there is Short term Capital Loss of Rs (462500-350000) Rs 112500/- is to be shown in your Return of Iincome & it is to be carried forward for future years.

Depreciation as per income tax calculate at the end of the FY. In your case you have sold in between the year ie FY15-16 and I assume no another Car has been purchased. So Block WDV become NIL at the year end.
No depreciation benefit you get.
And due to sale of the fixed asset your Short term capital gain tax comes into play.
yes there is no dep charged when block of the assets is nill but capital gain or loss will be calculated

The closing WDV is nill therefore no Depreciation will be charged. further you will book STCL on sale of car.
