Dear Friend

AS per AS-6 u can claim Dep. on 31-Mar. on motor cost amount (with out including Insurance Charges)

As per IT ACt. U can claim Dep. U/s 32 for 6 month on mator cost

Since a car cannot ply on road without registration and insurance.., the asset is not yet put to use. so you cannot claim depreciation on it...

Seniors correct me if i m wrong...!!!

As per As -6 If u Purchase Fix asset Than Claim Dep. Even IF in that Year U can't put to use.
