1) Proposed Dividend

Under the previous GAAP, dividend proposed by the Board of Directors after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements were considered as subsequent events. Accordingly, provision for proposed dividend including dividend distribution tax was recognised as liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognised when the same is approved by the shareholders in the general meeting.

2) Remeasurement of post employment benefit obligations

Under the previous GAAP, cost relating to post employment benefit obligations including actuarial gain/losses were recognised in Profit & Loss. Under Ind AS, actuarial gain/losses on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit & loss.

3) Fair Valuation of Investments

Under previous GAAP, investment in equity instruments were classified into long term and current investments. Long term investments were carried at cost less provision other than temporary in nature. Current investments were carried at lower of cost or fair value. Under Ind AS, these investments are require to be measured at fair value either through OCI (FVTOCI) of Through Profit & loss (FVTPL). The company has opted to fair value these investments through other comprehensive income for Debt and equity Instruments. For its investments in Liquid funds, the Company has opted for fair value through P&L

4) Discounts/Incentives

Under previous GAAP, the Company accounted for revenue net of trade discounts, sales taxes and excise duties. Under Ind AS, the Company will recognise revenue at fair value of consideration received or receivable. Any sales incentive, discounts or rebates in any form including cash discounts given to customer will be considered as selling price reductions and accounted as reduction from revenue.

5) Deferred taxes

Under previous GAAP, deferred tax were recognised based on Profit & loss approach i.e. tax impact on difference between the accounting income and taxable income. Under Ind AS, deferred tax is recognised by following balance sheet approach i.e. tax impact on temporary difference between the carrying value of asset and liabilities in the books and their respective tax base.
