IFRS Policy

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) refers to the common set of rules and regulations (standards) of accounting which are followed at global level for the preparation of the financial statements.

As per International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the company values the property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets which follow the initial valuation at the (1) cost less accumulated depreciation or (2) fair value (revaluation).

When the book value of asset is higher than the fair value of asset, the amount of difference is being reported as an expense in the income statement. Therefore, the net income will be decreased.
