Meera Textiles Ltd is first-time adopting Ind AS. Its team looks in Ind AS 12 for the transitional provisions that SIC 25 gave on changes in the tax status of an entity or its shareholders. Where would they find the relevant transitional provisions, per the comparison with IAS 12?

The relevant transitional provisions are in Ind AS 101, First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. Ind AS 12 does not reproduce the SIC 25 transitional provisions, because all Ind AS transitional provisions, where appropriate, are placed in Ind AS 101.

  2. BIn Ind AS 101, because transitional provisions of Ind AS are included there where considered appropriateCorrect
