Since there is nothing to show that there is a present obligation, no provision will be made.
As per para 27 of AS 29, a contingent liability is recognized only where the possibility of an outflow
of resources embodying economic benefits is not remote. Since there is no onerous liability as on the
reporting date, the possibility of an outflow becomes remote. Therefore, no contingent liability will
arise. In fact, the management has wrongly worded it as ‘onerous liability’ in its notes to accounts.
Onerous liability arises only when the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligation under the contract
exceeds the economic benefits expected to be received from it. This note should be eliminated.
2. The demand notice from the tax department (that is under litigation) is a clear instance of a
‘contingent liability’. Accordingly, the note should be revised as –
‘Contingent Liability:
There is a demand notice INR 12 Million, which is under CIT (Appeals) as on the reporting date.
3. The Statement to Profit and Loss needs to represent earnings per share, as per AS 20.
