Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that you cannot simply choose not to claim depreciation on fixed assets when filing your ITR-5. According to Section 32 of the Income Tax Act, depreciation is an allowable deduction if the asset is used exclusively for business purposes and owned by the assessee. Furthermore, accounting standards mandate depreciation in the books of accounts for non-corporate entities, making it a compulsory entry.

          No, you can not skip depreciation, as per section 32 of the income tax Act and it is allowable deduction if asset is used exclusively used for business purpose ,                Also depreciation is mandatory as per accounting standards 10 (PPE) in the books of accounts, which is applicable to non corporate entities, so as per my opinion file ITR5 as per the Income tax law  . 

Take more opinion on this. 

Please correct deduction meaning ( mistake due to oversight ), it's allowable expenses while calculating taxable profit. If  the asset is exclusively for business purpose.

Also one more thing I would  like to add above, is that asset must be Owned by assessee, in addition to use for business purpose.
