CIT (A) further erred in not appreciating the fact that AO ought to have referred the valuation to DVO instead of estimating FMV himself. Ld.

On the other hand, the ld.Sr.DR supported the orders of the authorities below. 7. We have heard the rival submissions, perused the material available on record and gone through the orders of the authorities below. We find that the ld.CIT(A) has given direction in respect of unabsorbed depreciation at page No.12 of his order, which read as under:- (1) Brought forward depreciation for and upto AY 1996-97 (termed as 'First unadjusted depreciation allowance' by Hon'ble (ITAT), i.e. for AYs 1990- 91, 1991-92, 1993-94, 1995-96 & 1996-97 as per chart above could have been set off upto AY 2004-05 only. The same cannot be set off in AY 2008-09. (2) Unabsorbed depreciation pertaining to AYs 1997-98, 1993-94 & 1999- 2000 (termed as Second un .....

This means that any unabsorbed depreciation available to an assessee on 1st day of April, 2002 (A.Y. 2002-03) will be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of section 32(2) as amended by Finance Act, 2001 and not by the provisions of section 32(2) as it stood before the said amendment. Had the intention of the Legislature been to allow the unabsorbed depreciation allowance worked out in A.Y. 1997-98 only for eight subsequent assessment years even after the amendment of section 32(2) by Finance Act, 2001 it would have incorporated a provision to that effect.

If a balance is left even thereafter, that becomes deductible from out of income from any source under any of the other heads of income during that year. In case there is a still balance left over, it is to be treated as unabsorbed depreciation and it is taken to the next succeeding year. Where there is current depreciation for such succeeding year the unabsorbed depreciation is added to the current depreciation for such succeeding year and is deemed as part thereof. If, however, there is no current depreciation for such succeeding year, the unabsorbed depreciation becomes the depreciation allowance for such succeeding year. We ar .....
