Their is separate legal entity concept in accounting which say that business and his own are different persons.

Likewise, since Liabilities, Owner's Equity (Capital), and Revenue Accounts normally have a Credit Balance in order to Increase the Balance of a Liability, Owner's Equity, or Revenue Account the amount would be entered in the Credit or Right Side Column and the amount would be entered in the Debit or Left Side column

It is correct that capital is treated as credit as it is liability for a business this is because of the Business Entity Concept which which assumes business has a distinct and separate entity from its owners. It means for the purpose of accounting, business and owners are to be treated as two separate entities
