A perusal shows that such vehicle stands in the name of Sh. Hemantkumar Amrutlal Patel with bill dated : 24/03/2012 and amounting Rs. 12,99,243/-. The Insurance papers also bear the name of this person.

Hon'ble Tribunal has reached the finding that depreciation shall not be allowed unless it is established that it is beyond the control' of the tax payer to register the asset in its name. Thus, merely financing the asset shall not suffice to claim the ownership. 10.5 In view of the facts available on record and the discussion made herein above, it is inferred that the XUV was registered in the name of the director of the company and since the company was not the owner it did not have any right to claim depreciation on the same. Even otherwise, it is very important to consider that even the director of the company became the legal owner of the vehicle in question in the following FY i.e. on 17.04.2012. Accordingly, the depreciation claimed on such vehicle at Rs. 1,23,522/- is hereby, disallowed and added back to the total income. 13. The Ld.
