thank u for ur reply. But, on what amount we should calculate the depn incase if it is used. whether on amount invoiced by the selling company or on the book value of selling company ?

on the invoiced amount of the selling company. Because Invoice amount shall be treated as the Purchase cost for the transferee company.

Hope this will clear your doubt.
