why AS changing

YES  , CHAGES ARE THE PART OF LIFE BUT TIHS TIME THE CHANGES ARE TO KEEP PACE WITH GLOBAL STANDARDS!!

 Yes Pratik there is Increasing Preassure about Adopting IFRS

but Experts are  Trying to modify AS accordingly so that we should continue to follow AS with some changes

 YAH -SAMEER IS RIGHT

UNTIL ICAI ADOPTS IFRS, THERE MUST BE GUIDELINES TO THE ISSUES  OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WHICH ARE DEALT IN THE NEW AS.

SO WE NEED TO FOLLOW THE NEW AS UNTIL WE ADOPT IFRS

Well AS 30 and AS 31 are very much in line with the IAS 32 and IAS 39 issued by IASB for IFRS reporting. Since these accounting standards are quite complex and the accounting required therein has never been done, it will be better for industry to acquaint itself with these typical standards well in time so that they will not face much difficulty going forward because reporting under IFRS, as proposed by ICAI, would be applicable for accounting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2011. It gives sufficient time to industry to understand the complexities involved in the implementation of these accounting standards.
