A ltd has 60% Shares in B Ltd which inturn has 20% shares in C Ltd. Also, A Ltd hold 14% shares in C Ltd.
As per AS 18, A ltd has substantial control over the financial or/ and operating working B Ltd and B Ltd has significane influence on the financial or/ and operating working of C Ltd.
Also, its clear that A Ltd holds significant share in C ltd, directly as well as indirectly.
My question is how much do we consider A Ltd's hold? 14% + 12% (20% Of B Lts's shares)= 26%, signifying a significant influence over the business or 14% + 60% = 76%, signifying control over the business.

A ad company takes 50% in advance and then performs the service ie makes ad films for the client and after the service is completed, it receives the balance amt. now my question is, when company should recognize revenue?

One Company has to receive some consideration from the other company for several years say for 3 years, how ever that receiving company booked excess revenue in first 2 yrs than actual revenue due to wrong interpretation of contract agreement, now the company can adjust such excess against actul revenue in 3rd year.

Eg: actual Revenue for 3 years is 4lacs, 6lacs and 5lacs, how ever in 1st year company recognised 5.5 lacs and paid tax on that, in 2nd year 8lacs and paid tax on such income also, now company came to know that it recognised excees of 3.5 lacs so , it wants to recognise income of (5-3.5=1.5 lacs only in 3rd year. can it do so? assume that due date for filing return u/s 139(5) is expired already for first two years

An Invoice raised in FY 12 for $100 was written off as bad debt in FY 13 (say on 31st March 2013). Subsequently the client pays this $100 in FY 14 (say on 2nd April 2014) not knowing that it was w/off as bad debt. Please explain the treatment of this $ 100 received in the light of relevant Guidance Notes. Whether it should be treated as Advance for Future Sales or a new Invoice need to be raised for the equivalent amount?
