Carried forward business loss is adjusted first before unabsorbed depreciation u/s 32(2).

AI Summary

Setoff of business loss: carried forward business loss is to be adjusted before unabsorbed depreciation under section 32(2). Where a taxpayer has both carried forward business loss and unabsorbed depreciation, the carried forward business loss is to be adjusted first, followed by adjustment of unabsorbed depreciation under the depreciation provisions (u/s 32(2)).
