Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a company can provide interest on a loan account that has been declared a Non-Performing Asset (NPA) by banks. While Ind AS allows for such provisioning, it's advised to be cautious. The treatment depends on whether the loan is classified as a sub-standard or loss asset, with potential consequences for financial guarantees. Guidance on specific accounting treatments under Ind AS is provided.
If the account is sub standard asset then bank may charge Interest on such loan but if it is loss asset then no interest is charged by bank on such loan then bank can go for auction
IndAS it is possible. But it is advisable not to create too many provisions. Incase if you want to provide for it
Accrued interest payable a/c
To Provision a/c
(this is possible if your loan account is not closed and your financial guarantee not impounded)
or else you can leave it in the accrued interest account. I need to verify with the document what will happen and treatment for financial guarantee becoming NPA. I’ll get back if anything important is there soon.
Meantime, if the loan is completely closed, write off financial guarantee loss.
B4.1.13- treatment is prescribed here for various types of debt. Also banks collateral treatment is given in B5.4.9 (I’m sure there is no special IndAS for banks)
