Firstly an asset cannot be written off just like that. If the asset is damaged & its working condition cannot be restored then it can be written off or the appropriate word would be to scrap it off.

Secondly, regarding the income tax point of view the sales amount shall be deducted from the respective block of asset & suppose it is the only asset in the block then Net WDV (i.e opg WDV less sale value) shall be the short term capital loss.
