    Hi.
    Does the partial disposal which result in loss of control constitute to a discontinued operation? For example, parent hold 70% before and sell 30% ,remain only 40% of subsidiary.

    IFRS 5 is not clear on this point.

    If you lose control (70 to 40), I think most commentators would see it as a discontinuance.

    So it will be present as a single line item in the SOPL as a discontinued operation if satisfied the criteria? And there is 3 criteria and is it to will only need to hit ANY of it to be classified as discountined operations?
