Value and Deprication will be as per income tax only bcoz MAT in which we consider companies act value is only for income tax purpose and have no relevance to wealth tax.

FOR the 2nd one i think it will be a notinal deprication which will be provided.....ie. value of  car - deprication on notional basis like the car is used for business purpose and deprication is provided on it. this value will be taken as value of the car
