Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) are largely converged with the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In the recent past, IASB along with the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) has issued various amendments to IFRS as part of their annual improvements process or as specific narrow scope amendments.
In view of the recent amendments to IFRS, and in order to keep the Ind AS converged with IFRS, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) issued certain amendments to Ind AS vide a notification dated 23 March 2022 (2022 amendments). These amendments have been issued in the following areas:
| Ind AS | Amendment |
| Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment | Accounting for proceeds before intended use |
| Ind AS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets | Determining costs to fulfil a contract |
| Ind AS 103, Business Combinations | References to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting |
| Annual improvements to Ind AS (2021) | |
Ind AS 101, First-time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards |

In this issue of First Notes, we aim to provide an overview of the 2022 amendments.
