P682 - PROGRAMME
ON IND-AS (ACCOUNTING STANDARDS) / IFRS (LIC)
(2023-24)
Background:
Indian Accounting Standard (abbreviated as Ind-AS)
is the Accounting Standard adopted by companies in India. It was
issued under the supervision of Accounting Standards Board (ASB) constituted as
a body in the year 1977. ASB is a committee under Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (ICAI) consisting of representatives from government
departments, academicians, other professional bodies viz. ICAI, representatives
from ASSOCHAM, CII, FICCI, etc. ICAI is an independent body formed under an act
of parliament.
Companies are required to follow
Ind-AS either voluntarily or mandatorily. Once a company follows Ind-AS, either
mandatorily or voluntarily, it can't revert to old method of accounting.
Financial statements have
incredible importance for both internal and external stakeholders. They
basically are a report card of the performance of the company. It is, therefore,
important that they are regulated and do not report misleading information. The
Accounting Standards (AS) provide us with a framework for this regulation.
