    <title>Machinery depreciation for idle units within a block of assets-non-use doesn&#039;t bar claim if business continues</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95583</link>
    <description>Depreciation on machinery was disputed on the ground that certain units were not used during the relevant year. The court held that, post the &quot;block of assets&quot; regime, depreciation is allowable with reference to the block as a whole, and not asset-wise or unit-wise; once the assessee continues its business, the block is treated as &quot;put to use,&quot; and non-use of particular assets within the block does not defeat the claim. Section 38(2) was held inapplicable because there was no allegation of non-business or personal use. Depreciation was allowed to the assessee. - HC</description>
