ACCORDING TO TS GREWAL 2015-1 PAGE NO 3.23 QUES NO 14...THERE IS ADJUSTMENT MADE ON PROFIT ON REVALUATION AND GENERAL RESERVE......WHY ARE ITEMS OF REVALUATION NOT AJUSTED IN BALANCE SHEET THOUGH GENERAL RESERVE IS TAKEN??
 

Praveen is absolutely correct. 
In the question, it is clearly mentioned that ' Partners decided that altered valued are not be recorded in the books and general reserve will not be distributed among the partners, which implies that assets and liabilities are to be shown in the New Balance Sheet at their old values along with the General Reserve. 
For this purpose, an adjusting entry has been passed with Rs 2,500. 

I hope this will help you.

hello Naman, 
The items of revaluation is not adjusted through balance sheet is because of that they are distributed among the partners in their capital account(2500). In here general reserve is taken in balance sheet because in the question they have said that they do not want to distribute it to capital account of the partners. So it should be recorded in the balance sheet. If it is distributed then there is no need to take general reserve in balance sheet.
