Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment for disposing of equity shares that were previously measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) under Ind AS. It outlines the necessary journal entries, including debiting cash, crediting the investment account, and recognising the gain or loss. The advice also touches upon reversing prior entries and referencing the last revaluation date for calculating the gain or loss.

To record the disposal of shares in a journal entry, you need to

  • Debit Cash or Bank account for the amount received from the sale of shares.
  • Credit Investment account for the carrying amount of shares sold.
  • Credit Other income account for the gain or loss on disposal of shares.
  • If the entry has already been passed, it needs to be reversed before passing the entry for disposal in consolidation.
  • The gain or loss on disposal is recognized with reference to the last revaluation date

If subsidiary has 100 shares, how many shares does the parent hold? And how mamy shares did it sell?
