During the year under consideration, the assessee did not use the auto corners for its business purposes, but leased out the same. The assessee has shown the lease income under the head 'business income' and thereby claimed depreciation on the same. According to the Assessing Officer, under the provisions of section 32, depreciation cannot be allowed to the assessee on any asset which is not used for the purpose of the business of the assesse.

In our considered opinion, these details requires verification and both the parties before us agreed that the matter should be restored to the file of the Assessing Officer for verification of the details and thereafter adjudication of the issue afresh as per law as discussed above.
