Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 wrote: Once Hashirama started funneling his chakra into the lower half of Madara's severed body Hagoromo appeared stating he could appear because of Asura, Indra, and Kurama's chakra. So it's likely that Hashirama still has it, regardless, Hashirama's cells would still contain Asura's chakra because they came from his original body which had the chakra. I mean, Madara's original eyes still had both Indra and Asura's chakra in them (AKA Hagoromo's chakra) despite him being a previous transmigrant. So even though Asura and Indra's chakra does move on it appears that it simply replicates itself and moves on from the deceased individual since their bodies still have it. best explanation, it also makes sense from the initial explanation of chakra creation, the cells are one part of the chakra, the mind is the other one,

if the "reincarnation" is bound to the DNA of the host, than that eans naruto and sasuke have a part in their DNA which makes their chakra each 50% of so6ps, while normal shinobi have their own DNA and therefore their own body-energy,

in that case hashi and madara wouldnt magically lose their ashura/indra powers because once a transmigrant always a transmigrant be it in chakra of DNA ^_^
