Unabsorbed depreciation carried forward under Section 32(2) retains the character of current-year loss and may be set off against business income or other income, except capital gains; on that basis, the assessee was entitled to set off the depreciation against the addition made for unaccounted stock.

The substantial questions of law were answered in favour of the assessee.
