No need to report if transaction is not speculative. Companies may get to avoid reporting losses on derivative contracts provided they can prove that the transaction was a hedge and not speculative in nature. A recent clarification by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) regarding disclosure norms for derivative contracts had specified that companies would have to disclose mark-to-market losses from such transactions, financial year 2007-08 onwards. Sources now say companies have the leeway to avoid reporting losses on derivative contracts, as there are enough mechanisms in accounting standards that lay out the guiding principles in this regard.
In order to provide more opportunities to eligible audit firms, the existing cycle of four years of continuous statutory central audit in PSBs with compulsory rest of two years will be reduced with prospective effect to a cycle of three years of continuous statutory central audit with compulsory rest of two years. This will be effective from 2006-07 in respect of SCAs appointed in 2006-07 and onwards. The existing continuing auditors will be allowed to complete their four years’ cycle after which they will be rested for a period of two years. The appointment of SCAs will be made on an annual basis, subject to their fulfilling the eligibility norms prescribed by RBI from time to time and also subject to their suitability.
Information relating to allocation of auditors/audit firms to various public sector banks for the year 2007-08 is hosted on the web-site of RBI. While forwarding names of audit firms, banks are advised that not more than three branches may be allotted per audit firm and that they should endeavor to give assignments to all the auditors to the extent possible. It may be noted that it may not be necessary that all the audit firms whose names are forwarded/ recommended by RBI to various banks are allotted branch audit by the respective banks, as sufficiently higher number of audit firms are forwarded to banks in order to enable them to allot audit assignments as per their logistic requirements
In what could be a significant deterrent to corporate frauds, the concept of rotation of partners received a green signal from the apex body for chartered accountants, Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), and mandates change of partners after seven consecutive years with a listed company. The step, cleared by ICAI, will be operational from April 2009 and is expected to significantly reduce complexity between individual partners in audit firms and their assigned companies, something that has been a cause behind many of the big corporate frauds to have hit the financial world.
