I think Fair market value on the date of conversion is the consideration for taxing the capital gains for a capital asset converted into stock in trade charging section 45(2)

Please placed the question correctly at first you said director then you are saying partner????

At first you said personal gold now you are saying Stock in trade gold.

Please placed the question correctly carefully otherwise you never ever get the correct answer from our end.............

If stock in trade transferred to as stock in trade with consideration(i.e. paying money) then it will be added as turnover of the transferer company and it will be taxable under the head "PGBP" not Capital Gain.
