I am the owner of a property and I am looking to get into a partnership with 2 other partners. The intended rent is 15000 and deposit is 1lakh. How can I receive the security deposit of 1lakh and what shall be the entry in the accounts book? Also, can I show my capital investment in the form of the security deposit?

When a customer pays a security deposit, a business needs to record a security deposit liability. If the deposit is refundable within the a year, then the liability will be shown as a current liability, if not, then it should be shown as a long-term liability in the balance sheet.
Capital Investment may not be shown as security deposit

Okay Sir.
But how shall I pay the deposit amount to myself, as I am the owner of a property but also a partner in the firm. It is decided as all 3 partners will have an equal contribution of the capital. So in this case, do I have to transfer my share of deposit as a partner(33000approx) in the firm's bank account and then again receive the amount from the partnership firm as a deposit by cheque or bank transfer?
Will that not lead to unnecessary bank transactions whereas the end result is going to be that I am paying the money to myself?
