Can a bank branck charge depreciation on computer peripherals @ 33.33% under SLM basis??
Because as per my knowledge(as per Income Tax act,1962) only depreciation under WDV method is allowed...

Depreciation can be charged under any method whether it is WDV or SLM. There is no restriction under income tax act to charged depreciation only under WDV method.
Plz refer section 32 of income tax act.

For banks there are special rates of depreciation applicable as per RBI guidelines. And Banks are ought to provide such rate of depreciation on computers @ 33.33% on Straight line method only.

Dear,
Charging depreciation as per banking act but, while we calculate income tax on bank earning then we calculate depreciation as per income tax act .
