NFRA Conference 2024 Participated in the conference Day 2 as a panellist in the session “Strides in Financial Reporting” moderated by Archana Butani with fellow panellists Prof Sanjay Kallapur of ISB, part time member NFRA and CA Mohan Lavi. Video from 2.00.03 hrs to 3.00.08 hrs. https://lnkd.in/gyAUizRq Key take aways: 1. IFRS 18 Primary Financial Statements: new format of Income statement from 2027, presenting profits as Operating , Investing and Financing. The 3 slides from Archana were so easy to comprehend; the best part of IFRS 18 is uniform format of Income statement world over similar to the uniform format of cash flow statement; operating profit being defined and liberty to enterprises to present their Management Performance Measures ( MPM) with reconciliation to Income statement sub totals; 2. Should self-generated intangibles be accounted more particularly considering that the new age companies the gap between market cap and book value is very high? brilliant exposition by Sanjay; 3. Business Combination Under Common Control ( need to remove Appendix C of Ind AS 103); 4. Authoritative status of IFRIC Agenda Decisions while applying Ind AS; 5. Reduction of disclosures/simplification, Mohan brought out very well the experience of IAS 19 project  : Investors love simple business models and pay a premium for same ; as Sir Einstein said, if you can’t explain to a 6 year old, you haven’t understood yourself : More often, Progress is seen as man's ability to complicate simplicity ; 6. Carve outs removal; 7. Option to state IFRS compliance ( soon to be 3rd largest GDP, leading the world, companies being global leaders, need to assert global standards compliance particularly when they have not availed any carve outs); 8. Review of applicability of Ind AS to unlisted companies and the limit of Rs.250cr ( $30Mn beign so small set 10 years back), when globally IFRS is applied only to listed companies; 9. Goodwill impairment and Business Combination disclosures expected amendment; 10. AS being brought closer to Ind AS. I was in transit, hence joined on Webex from airport and missed opportunity to interact with MCA, NFRA,ICAI leadership and all the other speakers and participants most of whom are friends for long time. Thankful to NFRA for invite and enabling participation on Video.
