    sir i am kind of addled at the prospect of seeing a “gain on derecognition on disposal of an equity instrument” in the consolidated SPL, where the parent entity through a step-acquisition increases its stake from 10% to 60% during the accounting period.
    (this gain relates to FV remeasurement on shares held under FVPL model. )

    I mean why do we separately/additionally recognise it when preparing consolidated SPL? Would not it have been included in the individual financial statement of the parent entity already??

    It is recognised INSTEAD of parent’s gain.

    Remember that you won’t be preparing a whole consolidation.

    Parent will show investment at cost or FVOCI – if the latter, there will be gains. These gains will not be in group accounts.

    We aren’t going to be asked to prepare a full consolidation so don’t worry about reconciling parent and group.
