In India, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has worked towards convergence by considering the application of IFRS in Indian corporate environment of Indian Accounting Standards with Global Standards. Recognising the growing need of full convergence of Indian Accounting Standards with IFRS, ICAI constituted a Task Force to examine various issues involved. Full convergence involves adoption of IFRS in the same form as that issued by the IASB. While formulating the Accounting Standards, ICAI recognises the legal and other conditions prevailing in India and makes deviations from the corresponding IFRS. For convergence of Indian Accounting Standards with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Accounting Standard Board in consultation with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA)), has decided that there will be two separate sets of Accounting Standards viz. (i) Indian Accounting Standards converged with the IFRS – standards which are being converged by eliminating the differences of the Indian Accounting Standards vis-à-vis IFRS (known as Ind AS) and (ii) Existing Notified Accounting Standards.
