When a firm converts into proprietorship the distribution of its assets is treated as transfer. Section 45(4)
. Firm will not be allowed any depreciation. . Prop. Firm can claim depreciation on the value of asset at the cost on which it has been taken over by it from the firm. . Firm has to pay capital gains tax, if any arises to it due to distribution of asset at a value higher than its book value or WDV.
