No it is not correct. ITR1 SAHAJ or ITR 2

no. depreciation can be claimed against the building which is being used for the purpose of business. the article might have been refering to something else. it would have helped if you could make an attachment of the same, so that we could understand what it is pointing at......

It is not depreciation. It is deduction. You may avail 30% deduction from your rental income u/s 24.

It is not a business income, it is a rental income and needs to be shown under income from House property

It will be business income when u are owning a no. of flats and ur main income source is renting

 

Yes no depreciation claim , you will be avail deduction 30% only from your rental income
As per section 32 you will claim depreciation deduction only towards your business income. When we calculating income from house property only two deductions will allow under section 24a and 24b as standard deduction and interest on loan towards purchase or construction of house respectively. So you are not supposed to claim deprecoayion.
