Sir, there is no cash transaction. Simply new asset has been acquired in exchange of old asset.
So the new asset should be recorded in books at which value?
In case recorded at new asset FMV, then how to treat the difference of 5000 Rs. (Will it be deemed to be treated as profit on sale of old asset & Cr to P&L A/c?)

according to AS-10 in the case of exchange of assets, value of assets will be taken ---- fair value of assets given up or fair value of assets received which is more clearly evident.
