All deductions allowable under sections 30 to 38 shall be deemed to have been allowed
in full and no further deduction shall be allowed. However, in the case of a firm, salary
and interest would be allowed as deduction subject to the conditions and limits
prescribed under section 40(b).
 The written down value of any asset of such business shall be deemed to have been
calculated as if the assessee had claimed and had been actually allowed the deduction in
respect of depreciation for each of the relevant assessment years.
