For eg.: A lender may be recognized in the financial guarantee by a party (‘guarantor’) on behalf of borrower, entititling to recover the outstanding dues from the guarantor if the borrower were to default,etc.

9. What Is a Financial liability ?
A financial liability is an liability that is :
(a) A Contractual obligation :
(i) To deliver cash or other financial asset to another entity ; or
(ii) To exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under
conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the entity ; Or
(b) A contract that will or may be settled in entity’s own equity instruments and is :
(i) A non derivative for which the entity is or may be obliged to deliver a
variable number of entity’s own equity instruments ; or
(ii) a derivative that will or may be settled other than by the exchange of a fixed
amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the equity’s
own equity instruments.

10. WHAT IS AN EQUITY INSTRUMENT. - Per Ind AS 32
WHAT IS AN EQUITY INSTRUMENT ? - Per Ind AS – An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. - Per Ind AS An instrument is an equity instrument if , and only if , both conditions (a) and (b) below we met: (a) The instrument includes no contractual obligation : (i) to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity; or (ii) To exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the issuer. (b) If the instrument will or may be settled in the issuer’s own equity instruments ,it is : (i) a non derivative that includes no contractual obligations for the issuer to deliver a variable number of its equity instruments ;or (ii) a derivative that will be settled only by the issuer exchanging a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number on its own equity instruments .for this purpose,rights,options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights,

11. a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non –derivative equity instruments. Also , for these purposes the issuer’s own equity instruments do not include instruments that have all the features and meet the conditions described in paragraphs 16A and 16B or paragraphs 16C to 16D ,or Instruments that are contracts for the future receipts or delivery of the issuer’s own equity instruments. A contractual obligation , including one arising from a derivative financial instrument, that will or may result in the future receipt or delivery of the issuer’s own equity instruments , but does not meet conditions (a) and (b) above , is not an equity instrument.

13. contractual obligations Puttable instruments are exception to this
The Key Characteristics of an equity instrument have been further explained as follows:
Equity instruments do not carry in the
contractual obligations
Puttable instruments are exception to this
- If it gives rise to the company the right to buy
back or redemption No
Contractual
obligation

14. Settlement in own equity instruments
Puttable instruments
Puttable instrument” is a financial instrument that gives the holder:
the right to put the instrument back to the issuer for cash or another
financial asset, OR
is automatically put back to the issuer on the occurrence of an uncertain
future event or the death or retirement of the instrument holder.
Phrase “put back to the issuer” = redemption of the instrument
For example - mutual funds and unit trusts, wherein the redemption amount is
equal to a proportionate share in the net assets of the entity
Settlement in own equity instruments

15. Settlement in own equity instruments
If equity carries an obligation for repayment in cash or other financial asset –Financial Liability Example : forward contract to buy back fixed number of own shares is financial liability
Settlement in own equity instruments

16. Ind AS 32 – objective, rationale and scope
Objective: Lays down the principles for classification of financial instruments into equity, financial liability or both
Scope : Only standard which deals with accounting for equity instruments
Core principle : Emphasis on contractual rights and obligations arising from the terms of the instrument
Probabilities of those contractual rights and obligations leading to an outflow of cash/ other resources are disregarded
Key definitions : Equity instrument, financial liability and financial asset

17. Definition – Financial Instrument
  Financial instrument is 
any contract 
that gives rise to 
a financial asset of one entity and
a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

18. Equity
Any contract that evidences a residual interest in net assets of an entity 
Examples
Ordinary shares
Share warrants
Mandatorily convertible preference shares   
in other words, contracts that are not liabilities  

19. Definition – Financial Liability
  Financial liability is
A contractual obligation
to deliver cash or other financial assets to another entity
to exchange financial assets/ liabilities under potentially unfavourable conditions; or
a contract that will or may be settled in the entity’s own equity instruments and is:
a non-derivative for which the entity is or may be obliged to deliver a variable number of
the entity’s own equity instruments; or
a derivative that will or may be settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments

21. Equity and liability classification
Financial instrument is an equity instrument only if both criteria are met:
There is no obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset or to exchange financial
assets or financial liability; and
The issuer will exchange fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed
number of its own equity instruments.
Does the entity have an unavoidable contractual obligation?
Equity
Liability

22. Ind AS 32 - Equity or liability distinction
Why does it matter?
Presentation in statement of financial position
Initial and subsequent measurement (scope of Ind AS 109)
Treatment of payments,
repurchases etc

23. Settlement in entity's own equity instruments
A contract is not an equity instrument solely because it may result in the receipt
or delivery of the entity's own equity instruments.
If an entity has:
a contractual right or obligation
to receive or deliver
a number of its own shares or other equity instruments
that varies
so that the fair value of the entity's own equity instruments to be received or
delivered equals
the amount of the contractual right or obligation
such a contract is a financial liability  

24. Settlement in entity's own equity instruments
Consideration for
financial instrument
Number of own equity instruments to be issued in settlement
Classification and rationale 1
Fixed
Variable
Financial liability – own equity instruments are being used as currency to settle an obligation for a fixed amount 2
Equity – issuer does not have an obligation to
pay cash and holder is not exposed to any variability 3
Financial liability – though issuer does not have an obligation to pay cash, but holder is exposed to variability 4
Financial liability – though issuer does not have an obligation to pay cash, but both parties are exposed to variability

25. Settlement in entity's own equity instruments
S. No.
Consideration for
financial instrument
Number of own equity instruments to be issued in settlement
Classification and rationale 2
Fixed
Equity – issuer does not have an obligation to
pay cash and holder is not exposed to any variability
“Fixed for fixed rule”

26. Subject to certain exceptions, if an entity does not have
Obligation to deliver cash
Subject to certain exceptions,
if an entity does not have
an unconditional right
to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset
to settle a contractual obligation
the obligation meets the definition of a financial liability.
Lack of access to funds or the need to obtain approval for payment from a regulatory authority, does not negate the entity's contractual obligation or the holder's contractual right under the instrument and hence does not affect its classification

27. Examples – obligation to deliver cash
Type of instrument Liability Liability Equity
Non-redeemable shares with discretionary dividends YES
('ordinary shares') 
Shares that are redeemable at the option of the holder YES
('puttable shares' )
Shares that are redeemable at the option of the issuer YES
('callable shares') 
Irredeemable preference shares with contractual dividends
p.a. 
Redeemable shares with discretionary dividends
('ordinary shares')

28. Consolidate all subsidiaries (See note 1 below)
UNIT 4: RECOGNITION AND DERECOGNITION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS yes
Consolidate all subsidiaries (See note 1 below)
Determine whether the derecognition principles are applied to a part or all of an asset(or group of similar assets) (see note 2 below)
Have the rights to the cash flows from the asset expired? (see note 3 below)
Derecognise

29. Obligations arising on liquidation
Certain instruments create an obligation only on liquidation of the entity 
Liquidation may be certain to occur and outside issuer’s control or uncertain to occur and at the option of holder. 
For example - Limited life entities like special purpose vehicles (SPV) for
execution of an infrastructure project
As per the ordinary definition of "financial liability", puttable instruments and instruments mentioned above shall always be classified as financial liabilities. But, there is an exception.

30. Compound instruments - Example Instrument Liability Component
Equity Component
1) Redeemable preference shares with discretionary dividends
Principal redemption
Discretionary dividend
2) Convertible bonds – conversion option with holder
Principal redemption and
interest payment
Convertibility option to the
holder

31. Issuer of a non-derivative financial instrument to evaluate the terms of the financial instrument to determine whether it contains both a liability and an equity component. If such components are identified, they must be accounted for separately as financial liabilities, financial assets or equity, and the liability and equity components are shown separately on the balance sheet.

32. Compound instruments – Separation +

Compound instruments – Separation +
Liability :Fair value using rate for non-convertible debt

Equity: Balancing Figure

33. Of setting of Financial asset against financial liability is practical and can be done

34. Financial Assets measured at
Amortised Cost
Fair value through other Comprehensive income
Fair Value through profit or loss
If below conditions are met
FA is held with BM whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flow
FA are accounted at FVTPL if:
(a) Any asset which is not measured at amortised cost and not measured at FVOCI ; or
FA shall be measured at FVOCI if below conditions are met
(a) FA is held with BM whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling FA
* Any equity instruments for which the entity makes an irrevocable elections to carry at fair value through OCI

35. Compound instruments Liability component ‘Split accounting’
Instrument whose terms indicate that it contains both a liability and an equity component
‘Split accounting’
Equity Component
must meet the definition of
equity
calculated as a residual
