If the amount contributed is more than ₹ 50,000/- section 56 of the Income Tax Act would attract.

thanks Govindrajan sir

Ok, i agree that sec. 56 will attract on firm,

but in the hands of partner,

> sec. 45(3) says that the full value of consideration for the purpose of sec. 48 will be the value at which the firm recorded in its books of accounts,

> but as per sec. 50CA says that the full value of consideration for the purpose of sec. 48 will be the fair market value.

which deeming fiction will be applied? that is the confusion.
