Later he sold the property at Rs. 7,00,000.

27 February 2013 As per Sec 45(3), when Partner transfers capital asset than it is presumed that its value is as written in books of partnership firm.

And as per Sec 45(4), when partnership firm distributes assets its market value will be considered as Sales value.
