As you are kindly aware that the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) are based on the IFRS Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In this regard, it may be noted that IFRS Standards are being issued/revised by the IASB from time to time. As a part of convergence with IFRS Standards, the Ind AS may be issued/revised corresponding to the IFRS Standards. Accordingly, whenever any amendments are made or new IFRS Standard/IFRIC is issued by the IASB, the Accounting Standards Board of the ICAI considers those amendments and other related aspects for amending the corresponding Ind AS.

In this regard, the Accounting Standards Board has issued the Exposure Draft on Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback –Amendments to Ind AS 116, Leases, for public comments with the last date of comments being January 30, 2023:
