• Recognition of intangible assets:
cost price paid+ taxes paid+ expenses to obtain title

16. • Exchanged IA should be recorded at
• Fair value of asset surrendered

Whichever is more clearly evident.
• Self generated IA like goodwill, copyrights should not
be recorded as IA

17. INTRODUCTION TO INDIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Indian AS stands for Indian Accounting Standard and are converged standards for IFRS
(International Financial Reporting Standards). Indian AS are documents and policies that provide
principles for recognition, measurement, treatment, presentation and disclosures of accounting
transactions in the Indian AS financial statements.
IndianAS are prepared keeping IFRS in mind, in actual these are IFRS in their converged form. There
are 41 IndianAS notified till now. The Accounting Standards Board of the ICAI is the issuing
committee of the Indian Accounting Standards in India. All Indian companies has to follow these
accounting standards when preparing their accounts, no other standards are acceptable. However, we
are taking steps to converge with the IFRS.
APPLICABILITY OF INDIAN ACCOUNTINGSTANDARDS
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), in 2015, had notified the Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards (IND AS)) Rules 2015, which stipulated the adoption and applicability of
IND AS in a phased manner beginning from the Accounting period 2016-17. The MCA has since
issued three Amendment Rules, one each in year 2016, 2017, and 2018 to amend the 2015 rules.
The INDAS are basically standards that have been harmonized with the IFRS to make reporting by
Indian companies more globally accessible. Since Indian companies have a far wider globalreach
now as compared to earlier, the need to converge reporting standards with international standards was
felt, which has led to the introduction of INDAS.
