select column_name, ident_incr('table_name')
from information_schema.columns
where table_name = 'table_name' and columnproperty(object_id(table_name), column_name, 'IsIdentity')=1

The sql Harsh provided didnt provide the count. ident_incr - is the incremental value

Try this - this is not much different to what Harsh provided except it shows all columns

USE Northwind
GO

SELECT 	COLUMN_NAME, 
	COLUMNPROPERTY(object_id('Orders'),COLUMN_NAME,'IsIdentity') AS IsIdentity,
	IDENT_INCR('ORDERS') AS INCREMENT_VALUE,
	IDENT_CURRENT('ORDERS') AS CURRENT_VALUE
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Orders'
