Ind AS Implementation

End-to-end Ind AS implementation — from gap assessment and first-time adoption under Ind AS 101 to accounting policies, disclosures and audit-ready financial statements converged with global standards.

Overview

A transition done right the first time.

Moving to Indian Accounting Standards is far more than relabelling line items. Fair-value measurement, financial instruments, revenue, leases and consolidation can all shift materially — and the first Ind AS financial statements must reconcile cleanly back to previous GAAP under Ind AS 101.

N D Savla & Associates guides companies in Goa through the full journey — gap analysis, adoption choices, policy design, restatement and disclosures — and trains your team to sustain it. We align the work with IFRS reporting where relevant and with your statutory audit.

Frequently asked questions

Ind AS, answered.

What is Ind AS?

Indian Accounting Standards notified under the Companies Act, converged with IFRS. They govern recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial statements for the companies required to apply them.

Which companies are required to apply Ind AS?

Ind AS applies in phases based mainly on net worth and listing status — listed and large unlisted companies above prescribed thresholds, with their holding, subsidiary, associate and JV companies. We assess applicability for your group.

What does Ind AS implementation involve?

A gap assessment against current accounting, first-time adoption choices under Ind AS 101, restating opening balances, designing policies and disclosures, and preparing the first Ind AS financial statements with comparatives.

What is Ind AS 101 and first-time adoption?

Ind AS 101 governs first-time adoption — preparing an opening balance sheet at the transition date, applying Ind AS retrospectively with mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions, and reconciling equity and profit from previous GAAP.

How is Ind AS different from the old Indian GAAP?

Ind AS is more principles-based and emphasises fair value, substance over form and extensive disclosures. Financial instruments, revenue, leases, business combinations and consolidation often differ significantly, so a structured transition is essential.

How long does Ind AS implementation take?

It depends on size, transaction complexity and records. Simpler entities can transition in a few weeks; complex groups need longer for gap analysis, policy design and restatement. We agree a clear plan up front.

Do you train our finance team on Ind AS?

Yes. Alongside implementation we provide practical training so your team understands the new policies, judgements and disclosures and can sustain Ind AS reporting after transition.

Can you help with the audit of Ind AS financial statements?

Yes. We support preparation of Ind AS financial statements and coordinate with the statutory audit, ensuring policies, judgements and disclosures are well documented and audit-ready.
