There is a news item that AS-11 provision is deferred regarding MTM. Does this apply to only derivatives ? As per AS-11, all assets and liabilities in foreign currency as of year end are to be reinstated at spot rate as of year end rate. Does this undergo a change due to the news item ?

As per new notification difference between any long term assets or liability foreign exchange gain or loss can be taken to “Foreign currency Monetary item Translation Difference Account”. However since derivatives are not covered any structured financial product may not come under this perview.

Thanks. Since the amendment talks about " long term asset/ liability " amount lying in foreign currency in trade creditors/ debtors accounts have to be reinstated as per AS-11 as done hitherto .Is this correct ?
