The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has released an Exposure Draft concerning the initial application of Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 117 (Insurance Contracts) and Ind AS 109 (Financial Instruments). These proposed amendments align with recent changes made by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to IFRS 17 and IFRS 9. A key proposal includes a 'classification overlay' to assist entities applying both standards simultaneously, particularly regarding comparative financial asset information.

FAQ :
The ICAI has released an Exposure Draft of amendments for the initial application of Ind AS 117 and Ind AS 109.
The purpose is to propose amendments to Ind AS 117 and Ind AS 109, aligning them with recent amendments made by the IASB to IFRS 17 and IFRS 9.
The 'classification overlay' is a transition option added to the draft amendments, specifically relating to comparative information about financial assets when an entity first applies Ind AS 117 and Ind AS 109 at the same time.
The classification overlay can be used by entities applying Ind AS 109 before they apply Ind AS 117, and it applies only to financial assets derecognised in the comparative period.
