Non-controlling interests
B7A first-time adopter shall apply the following requirements of IAS 27 (as amended in 2008) prospectively from the date of transition to IFRSs:
the requirement in paragraph 28 that total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance;
the requirements in paragraphs 30 and 31 for accounting for changes in the parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control; and
the requirements in paragraphs 34–37 for accounting for a loss of control over a subsidiary, and the related requirements of paragraph 8A of IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
However, if a first-time adopter elects to apply IFRS 3 (as revised in 2008) retrospectively to past business combinations, it also shall apply IAS 27 (as amended in 2008) in accordance with paragraph C1 of this IFRS.
