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.

‘Distance Learning’ as quoted by Dr. S B Mujumdar, Founder, Symbiosis International University is, “the education of the 21st century. The traditional method of teaching in a classroom called ‘brick & mortar’ education has failed to reach millions of those who are thirsty for getting knowledge in an age marked by “Knowledge Revolution”. Distance Education and Open Learning fulfill this need. Distance learning opens new directions of opportunities to obtain higher education without the constraints of location and time.” This is true considering India’s population and the geographical distances.
