Yes, the formats of Balance Sheet and Statement of Profit and Loss as provided in Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 are only applicable for the FY 2015-16, in respect of all companies for which no specific format has been provided under any other law, for the time-being in force, governing such companies.

Hope the above clarifies.

Please quote the relevant notification/circular issued by MCA in this regard.

Dear Arjun,

Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 was notified to come into effect on 27.03.2014.

Refer below link for the notification:

MCA notification dt 06.04.2016 has been published in the official gazette. But can u please mention where it is mentioned the amended Schedule III will applicable for F.Y 15-16 onwards. The same question is also asked by Learned Member Mr. Vivek.

please let me know where it is mentioned that the amended Schedule III will applicable for F.Y 15-16 onwards. Is it mention in new format of schedule III which is published on 06.04.2016?
It is not mentioned anywhere the FY. But it says with effect from the date of notifcn in the official gazzette. Since it is an instruction to prepare FS to be complied with AS or Ind AS, we can interpret that the complaince of AS and Ind AS are to be met every year and hence preperation of FS to be guided with this notification from immediate effect i.e, for FY 2015-16. But then the question as to complaince with this notfcn for companies who prepared financials between 1 apr to to 6th apr (though very less no of companies) remains unanswered !
