The above entry is to be passed only when there is upward revaluation of asset value previously. Otherwise entry to be passed is
P&l A/c Dr To Asset A/c.

it has to be debited to revaluation account and revaluation loss has to be transferred to partners' capital account. Friends, i know why you all say devaluation of asset has to be debited to profit and loss account( AS 6). But in partnership accounts mostly revaluations ll occur during change in constitution of the firm. So it is right to debit it to revaluation account and its profit/loss to be transferred to old partners' capital account.
Please correct me if i am Wrong.

I think, when there is change in constitution : Revaluation a/c dr.
To, Asset a/c
In other case: P&L a/c dr.
To, Asset a/c.

If there appears revalution a/c in the credit side of the b/s assuming that the same a/c was previously revalued upward and now devalued it should be debited to the revaluation a/c to the extent the bal in the reval a/c or otherwise dedited to P&L.
