Yes. computer software is eligible for depreciation under Income Tax Act,1961. The rate is same as that of Computer i.e.60%. Computer Software is intangible assets but it is contained in tangible media(computer) therefore, where Intangible part does not have a stand-alone value, we do not consider intangible asset as a separate asset. Hence rate applicable to computer is only applicable to software and hence rate applicable to intangible(25%) is irrelevant. Hope this resolves your query upto your satisfaction.
