The revised schedule VI is as yet only put up on the MCA site. It has not yet come out as a notification in the Official Gazette. But it is expected any time soon. It is for the FY 10-11. Needless to say, comparative figures for the previous financial years need to be restated for publishing FY10-11 annual results ( Annual report).
Please note that Clause 41 of the stock exchange listing agreement prescribes the format for publishing the results in the papers and to notify to the exchange. There is no change in this format. This means that the Statement of Assets and liabilities that has to be given as a part of the results every 6 months ( For Sept and March results) is still in the old format of Schedule VI.
Many professional seniors are of the opinion that it makes no sense to prepare 2 balance sheets - one for annual report ( new format) and another as per Clause 41 ( old format) for the exchange. In such a case, a note would have to be given as a part of the results to the exchange saying that the Stmt of Assets and Liabilities has been prepared as per revised Schedule VI.
