since the registered taxpayer is registered under composition scheme, the implied fact is, the party haven't claimed GST ITC on such purchase.
Hence no GST is chargeable, in case of transfer of fixed asset from proprietorship firm to partnership firm.

Transfer of business as a going concern has not been considered as goods under the CGST Act, 2017
Therefore, no GST is applicable.
