These are challenging times in many respects. A global financial meltdown in which India cannot escape without hurt, a gruesome terrorist attack on 26/11 on the financial capital of India i.e., our dear Mumbai, politicians’ continuous play and ensuing election and what not. In the field of Accounting and Auditing also we are expected to start a new reporting procedure, namely, IFRS. It is stated to be applicable from 1st April 2011. However in reality, one will have to start looking at the accounts in accordance with IFRS requirements much earlier, say, from 1st of April 2009.
Accounting Standards (AS) 30 and 31 have been issued by our Institute and will come into effect from April 1, 2011 with early adoption being recommendatory. AS-30 deals with recognition and measurement of financial instruments (including derivatives). AS-31 deals with presentation aspects and, in particular, with distinction between liabilities and equity. This distinction can be complex where corporates issue instruments like convertible debentures and foreign currency convertible bonds, which carry features of both debt and equity. AS-32 deals with disclosures. Small and medium entities are exempted from these Standards.
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has issued Exposure Draft of Limited Exemption from Comparative IFRS 7 Disclosures for First-time Adopters: Proposed amendment to IFRS 1 so as to amend Appendix E of IFRS 1 to include transition provisions for first-time adopters consistent with the transition provisions in paragraph 44G of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
India will stick to its earlier announced deadline for convergence with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) by April 2011, a top Government official has said. “Let me make it very clear that India is a signatory to accept IFRS.By accept, I mean convergence to IFRS by April 2011 and not adoption.
The word “document” is used to refer to a written or printed paper that bears the original, official, or legal form of something and can be used to furnish decisive evidence or information. “Documentation” refers to the act or an instance of the supplying of documents or supporting references or records.
This Exposure Draft on Financial Instruments: Amortised Cost and Impairment, has been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board with the objective to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement with a new standard, to be known as IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. To achieve this, the Board divided its project to replace IAS 39 into three main phases.
XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) is an electronic format for communication of business and financial data which is revolutionising business reporting around the world. XBRL is one of a family of “XML” languages which is becoming a standard means of communicating information between businesses and on the internet. XBRL provides major benefits in the preparation, analysis and communication of business information.
IFRS — issued by International Accounting Standards Board — is acknowledged by 113 countries. This is ICAI’s first list and more companies would be added on its next list, sources said. The first list comprises 439 companies. It includes BSE-Sensex companies, NSE-Nifty companies, companies that have raised debt of over $50 million abroad, financial sector companies, publicly accountable companies (with total borrowings of over Rs 1,000 crore), Indian subsidiaries of foreign companies that have implemented IFRS at the parent company and companies outside these categories with capital of over $50 million abroad.
An acute shortage of trained tax professionals coupled with a changing and complex tax landscape has led to a sharp rise in the pay packets of such experts with the average salary more than doubling in the past year alone, according to senior executives from tax and legal firms. While an entry level tax professional today commands not less than Rs 10 lakh per annum in some of the country’s top firms, the salary range for a middle-level professional is between Rs 25 lakh and Rs 35 lakh; while for a partner it ranges upward of Rs 75 lakh.
In the present case, it is not in dispute that the long term capital gain earned by the assessee is included in the net profit determined as per P&L account prepared as per Part II and Part III of Schedule VI to the Companies Act. In other words, it is not the case of die assessee that the capital gain earned by the assessee was not included in the net profit determined as per P&L account of the assessee prepared under the Companies Act.
