Ind AS Implementation · Panaji, Goa

Ind AS Implementation Services

IGAAP to Ind AS transition, first-year reporting, and ongoing Indian Accounting Standards support for companies in Goa.

Overview

Transition to Ind AS, done right.

The transition from IGAAP to Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) is one of the most technically demanding accounting changes a company undergoes — a complete restatement of the opening balance sheet, restated comparatives, new accounting policies, and significantly expanded disclosures.

N D Savla & Associates provides Ind AS implementation services for companies across Goa — gap assessment, opening balance sheet preparation, accounting policy documentation, restated comparatives, first-year financial statements, and ongoing reporting support. This connects with our IFRS implementation, statutory audit, and audit and assurance services.

📌 Ind AS is mandatory for companies above specified thresholds and cannot be deferred — companies that start six to twelve months before the transition date see significantly better outcomes.

Frequently asked questions

Ind AS implementation, answered.

What is Ind AS and which companies must apply it?

Ind AS are India's IFRS-converged accounting standards, mandatory for listed companies, their subsidiaries and associates, and companies with net worth above Rs 250 crore. Voluntary adoption is also permitted.

What is the difference between Ind AS and IGAAP?

Ind AS introduces fair value measurement, ECL provisioning under Ind AS 109, lease capitalisation under Ind AS 116, the five-step revenue model under Ind AS 115, and extensive disclosure requirements — largely absent from IGAAP.

What is the Ind AS transition process?

Identifying the transition date, preparing an Ind AS opening balance sheet with applicable Ind AS 101 exemptions, restating prior-year comparatives, documenting accounting policies, and preparing first-year Ind AS financial statements with full disclosures.

How long does Ind AS implementation take?

A typical implementation takes three to six months for moderate complexity. Complex companies with large financial instrument portfolios or lease commitments may take longer. Starting six to twelve months ahead is recommended.

What are the most complex areas in Ind AS implementation?

Financial instruments under Ind AS 109, lease accounting under Ind AS 116, revenue recognition under Ind AS 115, business combinations under Ind AS 103, and fair value measurement under Ind AS 113.
