Under Ind AS 101, a first-time-adopter lessee for an EXISTING OPERATING LEASE at the date of transition recognises a lease liability measured as:

AThe present value of remaining lease payments discounted at the lessee's INCREMENTAL BORROWING RATE at the date of transition
BThe original lease commencement-date rate, applied retrospectively
CThe face amount of all remaining lease payments without discounting
DThe lessor's implicit interest rate in the original lease contract
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. The present value of remaining lease payments discounted at the lessee's INCREMENTAL BORROWING RATE at the date of transition
Ind AS 101 lease exemption — lease liability at transition = PV of remaining lease payments discounted using the LESSEE'S INCREMENTAL BORROWING RATE on the date of transition (not the original lessor's rate, not the commencement-date rate). The ROU asset can then be measured either as if Ind AS 116 had always applied (retrospectively, using the transition-date discount rate) or equal to the lease liability plus/minus prepaid/accrued lease payments.
