To make any receipt as capital receipt it has to fulfill following conditions:
- Asset should be in the name of the assessee - It should be in the nature of capital receipt
If the asset if transferred in the name of CA then it will be capital receipt to the CA & if CA is acting as agent for the client then the receipt will be his professional income.
