Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment for lease liabilities under Ind AS 116. While future lease payments are discounted to determine the lease liability and right-to-use asset, the appropriate measurement basis is not strictly 'amortised cost'. Instead, the standard refers to a 'lease schedule' approach. Modifications to lease terms, such as changes in rent payments, are measured at fair value.

Yes. Liability= present value of lease payments+advance payment+direct costs- tax incentives= Right to use asset. Amortised cost method is used. Any modifications are measured at fairvalue eg if lease payments are decreased or increased by lessor. 

Forgot to mention.  Leases have a standard and amortised cost is not the right terminology.  The nomenclature used here is lease schedule
