All the assets have their estimated useful life and depreciation is charged uptill the end of the estimated useful life of the asset. It is necessary for the companies to charge the depreciation. When the asset is of no more use then it is disposed off or sold out. There is no other method to deal assets. It is the normal process which is done in the companies.

FIN623 Taxation Management - Question:
Dear sir, In lecture 36 example 1, The salaries amount is added back as no deduction at source is done. But the question is that if we take the total amount Rs.350,000/- than tax calculation are done at a given rate, but either this salary is for a single employee or more than 1 employees. If this salary is for 3 employees 100,000+100000+150000 per Annam than why we deduct tax at source because their salary is tax exempt according to schedule. And why these amounts are added back. Similarly if this salary is for a single employee than there will be tax deduction at source. So plz clear my point. Regards.

Instructor's Reply:
This tax calculation is at the end of the company not at the end of employees. On salaries tax was not deducted by the company that is why that amount would become the income of the company and would be added back, these amounts were added back and tax will be calculated on total amount after adding back all the missing items given in the example.

FIN623 Taxation Management - Question:
Dear Sir, I am confused about taxable income of a salaried individual and employee of a company. My question is, if all the employees salary of a company are comes under tax rate, than 1.Either they are charged individual (filing their returns individually) 2.Or the tax is deducted by the company from their salary ( the return is submitted by the company under expenses) If they are submitting their individual tax and company also deduct the tax, than the salaried persons are double taxed? Plz clear my point as m confused. As if company is not deducting the tax from salary at source than it will not claim this salary as expense. Or the only those employees are taxed whom salaries are not come under the tax rate individually but from the company side the collectively salaried is payable to tax. But if think so than the concept of Deduction at source is failed. Waiting for your reply.

Instructor's Reply:
The company deducts the tax of those persons who come under the minimum tax bracket. Those who do not earn taxable income are not taxed. If the company deducts the income tax of the salaried person then he would not show this in his income tax return form, however he would show other sources of income. Salaried persons are not doubled taxed.

Dear sir, As described the gems, stones, jewelry and antique which are not held by the assesses for his family members are capital assets, and any profit obtained by a person from their disposal is Capital Gain. On the other hand a person who associate with this business the income obtained is Income from Business. How can we differentiate it from each other. Regards.

If someone is involved in the trading of precious metals then this would be his business and any profit from this will be business income. If the asset is in the personal use of the family members then this is not the capital asset and any gain from this will not be capital gain and vice versa.
