Quick Summary
Partnership firm losses, much like profits, are typically transferred to the partners' capital accounts. This is a presentation choice within the business's accounts. However, this accounting treatment is separate from how losses are carried forward for tax purposes in the firm's tax return. The tax computation begins with the profit or loss before tax, and the accounting presentation doesn't impact the firm's ability to carry forward and set off losses in future tax years.

Loss or Profit, both are transferred to partners capital account. It is a presentation thing.The tax computation under the head business could begin from the Profit/Loss before as tax as per P/L account. Presentation of Loss in accounts has not linkage to carry forward of Loss in tax return.
Yes, both are separate things .
it's nothing to do with carry forward and set off of loss of firm in future years..
In books of accounts it's transferred to partner's capital account
Any loss in partnership firm will be distributed to partner's capital account just like a profit
