to write-off debit balance of P&L Account, hence ₹ 2,70,000 being loss shall be shown in the Balance
Sheet under Reserve & Surplus head and ₹ 30,000 shall be written-off from Capital Reduction A/c.

Plant & Machinery = (80/100) x 4,80,000 = ₹ 3,84,000
Reduced by:
Land & Building = (5,40,000 - 4,59,000) = ₹ 81,000
