Amendments to section 32 expand depreciable ownership to include assets held 'wholly or partly', cap aggregate depreciation for succession and amalgamation with apportionment by days of use, and replace sub-section (2) with a hierarchy for unabsorbed depreciation: set off first against business or professional profits, then other heads, and thereafter carry forward with an eight-assessment-year limit except where a company is a sick industrial company, in which case the time limit is suspended until net worth equals or exceeds accumulated losses.
