Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

In the absence of instructions or immediate cash/bank settlement arrangements, Section 37 of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932 dictates that the entire outstanding capital balance due to a retiring partner is transferred to their personal Loan Account. The firm carries this as a long-term liability, paying interest @ unless agreed otherwise.
