Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment for a property settlement deed where no monetary consideration is exchanged. The correct journal entry involves transferring the book value of the property from the original owners' accounts (A and B) to the capital account of the recipient family members (C). This ensures the asset is removed from the balance sheet without creating a new asset in the name of C, accurately reflecting the nature of a settlement deed.

transfer the book value to reserves/capital account.

Transfer the value of sale deed to c
The settlement deed of property is seperate.

Vikash - that is why you need to transfer the asset to capital account. Because if you create an account for C and transfer to the asset to C's account, then it would create another asset in your balance sheet in name of C. That is not the purpose of the settlement deed. You are removing the asset from your balance sheet and the corresponding debit is on personal side. Hence, debit the capital account.

Ok transfer the current market value or sale deed value to c

transfer book value.

So the book value will be transferred from A and B account and added to C capital account
