An entity enters a 60-day CONSIGNMENT arrangement: it ships 1,000 dresses to a retailer; the retailer pays ₹20/dress only when each dress is sold to an end customer. The entity can require return or transfer to another retailer at any time. Under Ind AS 115, revenue is recognised:
AOn delivery of the dresses to the retailer's premises
BOn signing of the consignment contract because legal title transfers
CPro-rata over the 60-day consignment period
DWhen each dress is sold to an end customer — control has not transferred to the retailer on delivery
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. When each dress is sold to an end customer — control has not transferred to the retailer on delivery
All three consignment indicators in para B78 are present: (i) the entity controls the product until a specified event (sale to end customer), (ii) the entity can require return or transfer to a third party, (iii) the dealer has no unconditional obligation to pay. Control transfers at end-customer sale, not on delivery to the retailer.
