Dear Niraj

Where an person owns fixed assets
jointly with others (otherwise
than as a partner in a firm), the extent of its share in such assets, and the
proportion in the original cost, accumulated depreciation and written down
value are stated in the balance sheet.

Alternatively, the pro rata cost of such jointly owned assets is grouped together with similar fully owned assets.
Details of such jointly owned assets are indicated separately in the fixed Register
