I am assuming that you are doing business as an Individual and the assets are in your name. You can bring them into the books at the cost of acquisition by giving a credit to your capital account. There will be no depreciation or appreciation charge on your land.

it means i have shown these assets as per the purchase price on that time not on the current market value . purchase price of land is Rs 30000 and Rs 225000. and how do i credited this in capital account plz advice .

Correct. It will be shown at historical cost and not at current market value as the underlying documents will be at historical cost.
