PART I – General Discussions

PART II – When and How to Begin?

PART III – Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015

PART IV – List of 39 Ind-AS as notified

PART I – General Discussions

Finally Ind-As has now become a reality. The much awaited day has come, bringing "Achhe Din" for the accounting fraternity.

Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 notified Ind-AS.

Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015. hereafter referred to as the Rules 2015 notified on 16th February, 2015

The Rules 2015 shall come into force from 1st day of April, 2015

Ind-AS will be implemented in three phases.

Phase I voluntarily – accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2015

Phase II mandatorily – accounting periods beginning on or after  1st April, 2016

Phase III mandatorily – accounting periods beginning on or after  1st April, 2017

The earliest date of compliance with Ind-AS being 1st April, 2015, the time has already started ticking for Ind-AS in India for those companies who have opted for Ind-AS voluntarily.

The Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) shall be the accounting standards applicable to classes of companies specified in the Rules, 2015.

Exemptions:- As per MCA notification dated 18th January, 2016, scheduled commercial banks (excluding Regional Rural Banks), All-India Term-leading Refinancing Institutions, and Insurers/Insurance Companies would be required to prepare Ind-AS based financial statements for accounting periods beginning from 1st April, 2018 onwards with comparatives for the periods ending 31st March, 2018 or thereafter. IndAS would be applicable to both the consolidated and the “stand alone” financial statements. Similarly, Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs) will be required to prepare Ind-AS based financial statements in two phases: (a) Under Phase I, (i) NBFCs having net worth of ₹500 crores or more (ii) holding, subsidiary, joint venture or associate companies of companies covered under (a)(i) above, other than those companies already covered under the corporate roadmap, would be required to prepare Ind AS based financial statements for the periods beginning from 1st April, 2018 onwards with comparatives for the periods ending 31st March, 2018 or thereafter. (b) Under Phase II, (i) NBFCs whose equity and/or debt securities are listed or are in the process of listing on any stock exchange in India or outside India and having a net worth less than ₹500 crores. (ii) NBFCs other than those covered in (a)(i) and (b)(i) above, that are unlisted companies, having net worth of ₹250 crores or more but less than ₹500 crores. (iii) Holding subsidiary, joint venture or associates companies of companies covered under (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above, other than those companies already covered under the corporate roadmap, would be required to prepare Ind-AS based financial statements for accounting periods beginning from 1st April, 2019 onwards with comparatives for the periods ending 31st March, 2019 or thereafter. NBFCs having net worth below ₹250 crores and not covered under the above provisions shall continue to apply the Accounting Standards specified in the Annexure to the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006. Applicability of Ind-AS to Housing Finance Companies is not explicitly covered under the roadmap for banks, insurance companies and NBFCs. MCA is expected to clarify this position. The definition of net worth and dates for consideration of net worth have not been clarified by the MCA/regulators in the above roadmap.

Summary of Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015

Ind-AS will be applicable both to Standalone Financial Statements (SAF) and consolidated financial statements (CFS)

Phase I Voluntary Compliance for accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2015

Companies can voluntarily comply with Ind-AS. However, this choice is irrevocable. No threshold limits of net worth or turnover for voluntarily compliance of Ind-AS.

Any type of company, whether listed or not, public or private, if voluntarily wanting to comply with Ind-As can do so.

Para 4 of the Rules 2015 prescribes as to which type of Companies shall comply with Ind-AS.

Any company may comply with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) for financial statements for accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2015, with the comparatives for the periods ending on 31st March, 2015, or thereafter (Para 4.1 of the rule)

• No threshold limit specified – Subsidiaries, associates and JVs are required not to follow Ind-AS for this category of company, however on practical note the group companies will follow Ind-AS

• Once applied the Company has to follow consistently and for ever, regardless of fall in net worth etc.

• Scheduled commercial banks, NBFCs and insurance companies shall apply Ind-AS only if they meet the specified criteria and are not allowed to voluntarily early adopt Ind-AS.

Phase II Mandatory application – accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2016

The following companies shall comply with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2016, with the comparatives for the periods ending on 31st March, 2016, or thereafter, namely:-

1. Companies whose equity or debt securities are listed or are in the process of being listed on any stock exchange in India or outside India and having net worth of rupees five hundred crore or more;

2. Companies other than those covered by sub-clause (a) of clause (ii) of sub-rule (1) and having net worth of rupees five hundred crore or more;

3. Holding, subsidiary, joint venture or associate companies of companies covered by sub-clause (a) of clause (ii) of sub- rule (1) and sub-clause (b) of clause (ii) of sub-rule (1) as the case may be; and – Note this limb is missing Rule 4(1)(i)

Thus, companies, whether listed or not, having net worth in excess of ₹ 500 crore as on 1st April, 2014 shall have to comply with Ind-AS.

Phase III Mandatory application – Accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2017

The following companies shall comply with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2017, with the comparatives for the periods ending on 31st March, 2017, or thereafter, namely:-

1. Companies whose equity or debt securities are listed or are in the process of being listed on any stock exchange in India or outside India and having net worth of less than rupees five hundred crore;

2. Companies other than those covered in clause (ii) of sub-rule (1) and sub clause (a) of clause (iii) of sub-rule (1), that is, unlisted companies having net worth of rupees two hundred and fifty crore or more but less than rupees five hundred crore.

3. Holding, subsidiary, joint venture or associate companies of companies covered under sub-clause (a) of clause (iii) of sub- rule (1) and sub-clause (b) of clause (iii) of sub-rule (1), as the case may be: ( in other words of the above companies)

Thus, unlisted companies having net worth less than ₹ 250 crore will not be covered in any of above phases. They will be covered as and when their net worth crosses the thresholds prescribed above.

Net Worth (NW) – as of which date ? based on SFS or CFS?

Net worth( NW) means as defined u/s. 2(57) of the Act, 2013

NW is to be calculated in accordance with stand-alone financial statements (SFS) and not consolidated financial statements (CFS)

For Companies existing on 31st March, 2014

The net worth shall be calculated in accordance with the standalone financial statements of the company as on 31st March, 2014 or the first audited financial statements for accounting period which ends after that date.

Companies not existing on 31st March, 2014 or an existing company falling under any of thresholds specified in sub-rule (1) for the first time after 31st March, 2014

The net worth shall be calculated on the basis of the first audited financial statements ending after that date in respect of which it meets the thresholds specified in sub-rule (1) of Rule 4.

The first audited financial statements for accounting period which ends after that date.

Other Issues of Applicability

Once the company adopts Ind-As, either voluntarily or mandatorily, it has to apply Ind-AS for ever, regardless of reduction of net worth.

The Rules 2015 shall not apply to companies listed or in process of listing on SME exchanges are not covered.

Subsidiaries – Overseas Rule 4(5)

Overseas subsidiary, associate, joint venture and other similar entities of an Indian company, need not follow Ind-AS for its standalone financial statements, but may follow requirements of the specific jurisdiction:

Indian company shall prepare its consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) either voluntarily or mandatorily if it meets the criteria as specified in sub-rule (1).

Indian Subsidiaries – of foreign company 4(6)

Indian company which is a subsidiary, associate, joint venture and other similar entities of a foreign company shall prepare its financial statements in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) either voluntarily or mandatorily if it meets the criteria as specified in sub-rule (1).

PART II : When and How to begin?

This discussion is based on for the companies voluntarily opting to comply with Ind-As from accounting period beginning after April 1 2015, all the dates are reckoned accordingly.

Ind-AS 101 First Time Adoption of Ind-AS needs to be applied. This standard contains few exemptions from retrospective application of Ind-AS in appendices (which are forming integral part of the standard) part of B, C and D.

Appendix B Exceptions to the retrospective application of other Ind-ASs

Appendix C Exemptions from business combinations

Appendix D Exemptions from other Ind-AS

Be careful about these mandatory exceptions as the company should not apply these retrospectively, rather apply only prospectively.

Readers are advised to refer to Ind-AS 101 before applying Ind-AS.

Effectively, Ind-AS to be applied to :

1. its first Ind-AS financial statements; and

2. each interim financial report, if any, that it presents in accordance with Ind-AS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, for part of the period covered by its first Ind-AS financial statements

Date of Transition (DOT) to Ind-ASs

The beginning of the earliest period for which an entity presents full comparative information under Ind-ASs in first Ind-AS financial statements.

1st April, 2014 is the DOT
First Ind-AS financial statements

The first annual financial statements in which an entity adopts Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-ASs), by an explicit and unreserved statement of compliance with Ind-ASs.
Companies must include statement of compliance in their financial statements.

Financial statements for the year ending 31st March, 2016

First Ind-AS reporting period

The latest reporting period covered by an entity’s first Ind-AS financial statements first-time adopter An entity that presents its first Ind-AS financial statements would be 31st March, 2016

Opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet as at 1st April, 2014 – restate Accounts of FY 2014-15

An entity’s Balance Sheet at the date of transition Viz., 1st April,2014 to Ind-ASs is known as the Opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet.

This marks the beginning of the company’s irrevocable association with Ind-AS.

The company will have to prepare its Opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet

(please note, not financial statements, but only the Balance Sheet)

The company will have to :

1. Recognise all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind-ASs;

2. Not recognise items as assets or liabilities if Ind-ASs do not permit such recognition;

3. Reclassify items that it recognised in accordance with previous GAAP as one type of asset, liability or component of equity, but are a different type of asset, liability or component of equity in accordance with Ind-ASs; and

4. Apply Ind-ASs in measuring all recognised assets and liabilities.

Subject to, provisions as described in paragraphs 13–19 and Appendices B–D, an entity shall, in its opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet:

The resulting adjustments arise from events and transactions before

the date of transition to Ind-ASs. Therefore, an entity shall recognise those adjustments directly in retained earnings (or, if appropriate, another category of equity) at the date of transition to Ind-AS.

While preparing Opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet, take advantage of voluntary exemptions given in Ind-AS 101. This will make the transition to Ind-AS bit easier.

Restate Financial Statements for the Financial Year ending 31st March, 2015.

Having prepared Opening Balance Sheet as at 1st April,2014, the next step is to re-state financials of financial year 2014-15. (which were prepared as per Accounting Standards)

Please note, the Company has to re-state all financial statements and not just the Balance Sheet for the financial year ending 31st March,2015.

Which Accounting Standards to apply to Opening Ind-As Balance Sheet ?

The moot question is , the opening Ind-AS Balance Sheet is to be prepared on the basis of which accounting standards ?

The one effective as at 1st April, 2014 or

The one effective as at 1st April, 2015 or

The one effective as at 1st April, 2016.

The answer is, the opening Ind-AS is to be prepared on the basis of Ind-AS effective on 31st March, 2016 , to put technically :

“An entity shall use the same accounting policies in its opening Ind AS Balance Sheet and throughout all periods presented in its first Ind AS financial statements. Those accounting policies shall comply with each Ind AS effective at the end of its first Ind-AS reporting period, except as specified in paragraphs 13–19 and Appendices B–D. – (Mandatory Exceptions and Voluntary Exemptions)” para 7 of Ind-AS 101

To make the transition cost effective and smooth Ind-AS grants exemptions from retrospective application of Ind-AS

Ind-AS grants limited exemptions in certain areas where the cost of compliance may exceed the benefits. These exemptions are optional and not mandatory.

An entity has to evaluate all these exemptions and understand the impact these will have on its financials in the short run as well as in the long run.

Quite a few new accounting policies may need to be adopted.

Previous policies may need modifications.

Basis of judgments and estimates will need detailed working and understanding.

For companies which has voluntarily opted to comply with Ind-AS will have to report their results for quarter ended 30th June, 2015 as per Ind-AS

Financial Year ending on 31st March, 2016

Company’s first Ind-AS financial statements are the first annual financial statements in which the entity adopts Ind-ASs, in accordance with Ind-ASs notified under the Companies Act, 2013 and makes an explicit and unreserved statement in those financial statements of compliance with Ind-ASs.

It is very important to make an explicit and unreserved statement in the financial statements for the financial year ending 31st March, 2016, else the Company will be considered as non –Ind-As compliant.

Challenges of Implementation of Ind-AS

Reclassifications and Re-grouping

Presently, items are regrouped or reclassified to confirm to current year classification without any justification being provided in the financial statements. Under Ind-AS, in case any regrouping or reclassification is done, the same needs to be disclosed along with reasons thereof.

Plan Implementation well.

Phase I : Plan Conversion

Phase II : Impact Analysis & Quantification

Phase III : Redefine / Redesign

Phase IV : Opening Balance Sheet as per Ind-AS

Phase V : Reporting date – Ind-AS financial statements

Adoption of Ind-AS needs very detailed and meticulous planning keeping in mind the accounting policies to be followed for group companies.

There is more to it then meet your eyes. Changes are not just for accounts but it impacts IT system as well.

Other Challenges

First Time Adoption

Regrouping/reclassification

Industry Comparatives

Changes in concepts requiring consideration

Awareness at Board level

External & internal communications

Availability of valuers

Transition may be difficult but not impossible.
