.Dear Member,
Deprecition on assets, whose actual cost does not exceed five thousand rupees, shall be provided at the rate of hundred percent"
(i.e., it should be first capitalised and then it should be depreciated 100%. and the expenses should come under the head depreciation and not any other head.
Further WDV whose value is less than or equal to 5000 cannot be charged off fully unless it is impaired or disposed off.
