FAQ :
The ICAI is proposing amendments to IFRS-16 to provide practical relief for lessees who receive rent concessions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The proposed amendments are primarily aimed at lessees, offering them relief in accounting for rent concessions.
Lessees will be permitted, as a practical expedient, not to assess whether COVID-19-related rent concessions are lease modifications. They can account for them as if they were not modifications.
No, the proposed amendment currently suggests no changes for lessors.
The proposed amendments are applicable for COVID-19 related rent concessions for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020.
Stakeholders can submit comments electronically via the ICAI website or by emailing commentsasb@icai.in by May 05, 2020.
