2.2 Companies Act, 2017: Introduction to the third, fourth and fifth schedules
The Companies Act, 2017 contains a series of appendices called schedules which set out detailed
requirements in certain areas.
The third schedule
This schedule lists the classification criteria of the companies on the basis of company size and
whether it is commercial or non-profit. It also specifies which companies are required to follow
requirements of fourth and fifth schedule of the Act.
The fourth schedule
This schedule sets out the disclosure requirements that must be complied with in respect of the
financial statements of a listed company.
The schedule specifies that listed companies and their subsidiaries must follow International
Financial Reporting Standards as notified for this purpose in the Official gazette.
The fifth schedule
This schedule applies to the balance sheets and profit and loss accounts of non-listed companies
(including large, medium and small sized entities) and their subsidiaries.
International accounting standards cannot be applied in any country without the approval of the
national regulators in that country. All jurisdictions have some kind of formal approval process
which is followed before IFRS can be applied in that jurisdiction.
Adoption process for IFRS in Pakistan
The adoption of an IFRS involves the following steps:
As a first step the IFRS is considered by ICAP’s Accounting Standards Board, which
identifies any issues that may arise on adoption.
The Board also determines how the adoption and implementation of the standard can be
facilitated. It considers issues like how long any transition period should be and whether
adoption of the standard would require changes in regulations.
The Board also identifies the need for changes to regulations it refers the matter to the
Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) (and/or the State Bank of
Pakistan (SBP) for matters affecting banks and other financial institutions). This process is
managed by the Coordination Committees of ICAP, SECP and SBP.
After the satisfactory resolution of issues, the Board and the Council of ICAP reconsider
the matter of adoption.
ICAP recommends the adoption to the SECP by decision of the Council. The decision to
adopt the standard rests with the SECP.
IFRSs are adopted by the SECP by notification in the Official Gazette. When notified, the
standards have the authority of the law.
