Historical cost of asset Rs 100
Written down value Rs 75
Sold the assets at Rs 150. That means profit of 75 Rs.
I heard that out of this 75 Rs profit, 25 Rs will be credited to P&L A/c and 50 Rs will be transferred to capital reserve. Is this treatment correct?
If yes, under which AS/ASI can I read about this treatment method?

Capital reserve account can be made from government subsidies, donated funds, set aside from firms regular revenue generating operations.
so, the company can take full Rs.75 to P&L a/c or Rs.25 to p&l and Rs.50 to Capital Reserve since sale of asset is a regular activity but not extra ordinary activity.
