ABC Limited holds 51% equity of BBB Limited, 63% equity of TTT Limited. There are different information
and explanations which are disclosed by the respective companies in the notes to their financial
statements. At the time of consolidation, management of ABC Limited has consolidated all the
information and explanations disclosed in the notes as well. The principal auditor is of the view that only
those information and explanations should form part of the notes to the consolidated financial
statements which are relevant at group level. Please mention any five aspects which are given in the
notes to the separate financial statements of the parent and the subsidiaries, need not be included in
the consolidated financial statements.
The Ind AS 110 does not give a list of information which is part of the separate financial statement of the
components but that need not be reported in the notes and other explanatory material of the
consolidated financial statements, however, based on section 129(4) and circular issued by MCA, it can be
construed that, even in consolidated financial statements under Ind AS, only those disclosures should be
given which are relevant to consolidated financial statements.
Based on the above discussion, in case of companies, the information such as the following given in the
notes to the separate financial statements of the parent and/or the subsidiary, need not be included in the
consolidated financial statements.
