The compensation amount has to be set off against the WDV of the assets and if there is a profit or loss the same has to be recognised.

Thank you sir if those assets accounting under accumulated depreciation how to set off the accounting entry

The depreciation reserve against these assets are to be reversed and transferred to revenue reserve. Compensation- WDV of the shopping complex=profit or loss.
