ATreat under Ind AS 19 employee benefits
BOut of scope of Ind AS 102
CTreat as equity-settled SBP
DTreat as CASH-SETTLED share-based payment (since cash is paid based on equity prices) — measured at the FV of the liability, remeasured each period to FV with changes in P&L
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Treat as CASH-SETTLED share-based payment (since cash is paid based on equity prices) — measured at the FV of the liability, remeasured each period to FV with changes in P&L
Cash payments based on equity prices fall squarely within Ind AS 102 as cash-settled SBP. Liability is initially measured at FV; remeasured at each reporting date AND at settlement, with changes in P&L. Ind AS 19 covers employee benefits unrelated to equity price.
