Traditional Concepts
Amalgamation: When two existing
companies are liquidated and a new Co. is
formed to purchase them.
Example: A Ltd. & B Ltd. are liquidated and
AB Ltd. is formed to purchase them.
Absorption: When an existing company is
purchased another existing company.
Example: A Ltd. is liquidated and an existing
company B Ltd. purchases it.
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 3
Reconstruction
Reconstruction of an existing loss making company is done through a reconstruction scheme to revive it. It is two types:
External Reconstruction: When an existing loss making is liquidated and a new company is formed to purchase it. Example: ABC Ltd. Is liquidated and ABC (2013) Ltd. is formed to purchase it.
Internal Reconstruction
When an existing loss making company is
restructured through reduction in capital to
revive it. Under the scheme of
reconstruction, sacrifice is made by
shareholders, debentureholders and
creditors to write off accumulated losses,
fictitious assets and overvalued assets.

AS – 14:
Amalgamation of Companies
As per AS-14, for the purpose of
accounting, there are two types of
amalgamation:
1. Amalgamation in the nature of merger
2. Amalgamation in the nature of purchase
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 6
Amalgamation in the nature of Merger
- Conditions
1. Assets and Liabilities: All the assets and
liabilities of the transferor (vendor) company
become the assets and liabilities of the
transferee (purchasing) company.
2. Equity Share Capital: Shareholders holding
at least 90% or more of the face value of
equity shares of the vendor company
become equity Shareholders of the
transferee (purchasing) company.
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 7
Amalgamation in the nature of merger
- Conditions
3. Purchase consideration: Purchase
consideration due to the Shareholders of the
transferor (vendor) company is discharged by
the transferee company wholly by the issue
of equity shares (except that cash may be
paid in respect of fractional shares or
payment to dissenting shareholders).
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 8
Amalgamation in the nature of merger
- Conditions
4. Business: The business of the transferor
(vendor) company is intended to be carried
on by the purchasing company.
5. Book Values: No adjustment is to be made
to the book values of assets (by revaluation
or otherwise) of the vendor company when
they are incorporated in the financial
statements of the purchasing company.
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 9
Amalgamation in the nature of Purchase
If any of the five conditions applicable to
amalgamation in the nature of merger is not
satisfied, it will be considered “Amalgamation
in the nature of Purchase”
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 10
Some Technical Terms
Business: Taking over the business means
taking all the assets and all liabilities.
All Assets: The term ‘all assets’ includes all
assets including cash, bank, goodwill, but
excluding fictitious assets.
Liabilities: The term ‘Liabilities’ is wider term
and include all outside liabilities (payable to
third parties).
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 11
Purchase Consideration
As per AS-14, “Purchase consideration is the
aggregate of shares and other securities issued and
the payment made in the form of cash or other
assets by the transferee company to the
shareholders of the transferor company.”
It means any payment made by the transferee
company for the denture holders or creditors or any
other outside liabilities of the transferor company
shall not be included in the purchase consideration.
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 12
Calculation of Purchase Consideration
Lump-sum payment method: The amount
of purchase consideration is given.
Net assets method
Purchase consideration = Value of assets taken
over – Value of liabilities undertaken
Value of assets shall be taken at (a) agreed value
of asset (if given), otherwise (b) book value of
assets.
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 13
Calculation of Purchase Consideration
Net Payment Method
Rs.
(a) Amount of Equity Shares
(No. of shares X Issue Price) x x
(b) Amount of Preference Shares
(No. of shares X Issue Price) x x
(c) Amount of Debentures
(No. of debentures X Issue Price) x x
(d) Cash paid for dissenting shareholders or fractional shares x x
Purchase Consideration (Total) x x
Prof. M. C. Sharma M: 9717415641 14
Exchange Method or Swap Method
Under this method, the purchase consideration is paid by
the transferee company to the shareholders of the
transferor company in the form of shares. No. of shares are
calculated on the basis of exchange ratio between the
shares of the transferor company and transferee company.
It is usually based on the intrinsic value of the shares of the
companies.
Example: A Ltd. Purchases B Ltd. And agrees to issue 2
equity shares of Rs. 10 each for every 3 shares of B Ltd.
Equity Share Capital of B Ltd. Consists of 1,50,000 shares
of Rs. 10 each.
No. of shares issued = 1,50,000* 2/3 = 1,00,000 shares.
Purchase Consideration = 1,00,000 x 10 = Rs. 10,00,000
1,50,000 X 15 = Rs. 22,50,000
No. of shares to be issued = 22,50,000/25
= 90,000
