12. XBRL History 1998 April - Charles Hoffman, a CPA investigates how XML could be used for electronic reporting of financial information. July - AICPA is Alerted Charlie Hoffman informs the AICPA High Tech Task Force about the potential of using XML in financial reporting. September - Product Description Crafted October - The AICPA decides to fund a project to create a prototype set of financial statements in XML. December - Prototype Completed The prototype is completed by Charlie Hoffman and Mark Jewett (Erutech). Jeffery Ricker (XML Solutions) contributes to the initial prototype.

24. XBRL is not….. standard chart of accounts way of reporting of specific information only for financial reporting require us to report more information too complicated to use or to understand GAAP translator CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
25. How it Works CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
26. The User View XBRL is similar to use of bar codes Similar to bar code, XBRL data can automatically identify each data information, such as Value, type, currency, date, sources, etc. Instead of treating financial information as a static text… CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
27. The User View Cntd…… XBRL tags are defined and maintained in taxonomies. Taxonomies are basis for tagging financial information in XBRL. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
28. How User can use XBRL Requirements : XBRL-enabled software and XBRL-coded or "tagged” documents. A tag is a string of computer code that represents one concept Eg. All Companies having same terminology to identify “Total Assets”, Revenue, Cost of Goods, etc.. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
29. How User can use XBRL A collection of tags is called taxonomy. Similar to a dictionary, it specifies the tags (words) to be used, their meaning, their definitions (types of data, structure, and relation to each other) and the relevant rules and formula sets. data can be collect from many documents in different locations and reassembled into a document. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
30. Technology View Above said simple process is made possible only by incorporation of various elements on a technology platform. Before understand any more in XBRL, You mush aware about: XBRL Taxonomy XBRL Tools CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
31. Benefit of XBRL Better Accuracy As data need not be re-entered, the possibility of error is reduced. Better Data management Time Saving Reusing Data Data Validation Easier document reading Transparency CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
32. ICAI on XBRL ICAI launched XBRL India website on July 3-5, 2009 at International Conference , Agra ICAI has developed taxonomy based on Indian GAAP for: Commercial and Industrial (C&I) taxonomy Banking taxonomy Taxonomy for Non-Banking Financial Companies CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
33. Technical Terms in XBRL Taxonomy Tag Elements Label Instance Documents Metadata XBRL GL Validation CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
34. Taxonomy Collection of Tags A type of dictionary for financial reporting. These taxonomies define the specific tags for individual line items of financial statement. The taxonomy schema files together with the relationships files define the concepts (elements) and relationships that form the basis of the taxonomy. Different core taxonomy exist for IN-GAAP, IFRS, US-GAAP, RBI, etc CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
35. Taxonomy document consists Schema file containing the definition of concepts used in the business report (.xsd file) XML file containing relationship between concepts (.xml file) Definition Presentation Calculation Labels Resources CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
36. Tag Identifying information that describes a unit of data in an instance document and encloses it in angle brackets (<> and ). All facts in an instance document are enclosed by tags that identify the element of the fact. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
37. Elements A human-readable description of a reporting concept. User point of view the definition is an unchangeable attribute of the element CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
38. Label Human-readable name for an element; each element has a standard label that corresponds to the element name, and is unique across the taxonomy. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
39. Instance document XML file that contains business reporting information and represents a collection of financial facts and report-specific information using tags from one or more XBRL taxonomies. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
40. Validation Process of checking that instance documents and taxonomies correctly meet the rules of the XBRL specification. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com

52. Based on XML XML XML is a standard language which is maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). XML does not replace HTML It enables rich, structured data to be delivered in a standard, consistent way. XML provides a framework for defining tags (i.e. taxonomy) and the relationship between them (i.e. schema). XBRL XBRL builds upon XML, XBRL is also extensible in that users are able to create their own XBRL taxonomies that define and describe tags unique to a given environment. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
53. How different is HTML – CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
54. The motto of HTML is: "I know how it looks", whereas the motto of XML is: "I know what it means, and you tell me how it should look.” CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
56. Tag Unit/ Currency Value / Datatype Prefix Element Name CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
57. Advantages of XML XML is not a limited set of tags defined by proprietary vendors. Rather than waiting for standards bodies to adopt tag set enhancements (a process which can take quite some time), or for browser companies to adopt each other's standards (yeah right!), with XML, you can create your own set of tags at your own pace. Of course, not only are you free to develop at your own pace, but you are free to develop tools that meet your needs exactly. XML allows each specific industry to develop its own tag sets to meet its unique needs without forcing everyone's browser to incorporate the functionality of zillions of tag sets, and without forcing the developers to settle for a generic tag set that is too generic to be useful. Machine-readable context information CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
59. To make this data interactive, the registrant will use software to affix an XBRL tag to each number on the balance sheet. For example, the tag affixed to the $100 “Cash” amount will have a descriptive name, such as “Cash.” Once the tag is affixed, any software capable of reading XBRL will be able to determine that the $100 amount represents cash, which is a current asset, and that the $100 amount rolls up into the “Total Current Assets” and “Total Assets” subtotals. The tag also provides a definition, the currency in which the amount is being reported (e.g., the U.S. dollar or the euro), and the related period for which the amount is being reported (e.g., as of December 31, 2008). CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
62. 2nd Step – Tagging/Mapping Open Excel file you wish to tag. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
63. Mapping….. Mapping means: Put XBRL taxonomies against Financial Statements line items. Here is the Snap Shot of Mapped Financial Statement in Excel. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
65. 3rd Step - Validation Process of checking that instance documents and taxonomies correctly meet the rules of the XBRL specification. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
66. Steps to prepare XBRL based report Generating financial statement is what we are doing till now. Mapping line items of financial statements with taxonomies. After mapping, certain line items may remain unmapped. For unmapped line items, new line items need to be added to the base taxonomy. If new line items are calculated accounts, corresponding calculation logic needs to be added to the extended taxonomy . CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
67. Extended Taxonomy Public taxonomies cannot always meet the precise needs of every individual financial report. For this reason, XBRL is designed to be extensible, allowing preparers to create an extension taxonomy that adds to the public taxonomy. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
68. Methods to create Extended Taxonomy Creating an extension taxonomy is done differently in different software products Name of extension files should conform to standardfile name conventions. Contain the date of the end of the latest reporting period in the filing. The extension taxonomy has a unique namespace, which looks like a web address although it is not. Eg. http://xbrl.ABC.com/2012‖. Every element has a Universal Resource Identifier (URI) that identifies the organization that maintains the element definitions, with an indication of what the term covers. In the XBRL US GAAP Taxonomy, namespaces start with http://xbrl.us/us-gaap/. A namespace prefix is not the namespace. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
69. Tags can be applied not only to amounts but also to nonmonetary financial concepts. The collection of XBRL tags forming the US GAAP Taxonomies has been modeled to accommodate all amounts and disclosures that must be reported under U.S. GAAP (i.e., if presentation of a financial number or disclosure is required under U.S. GAAP, a corresponding tag for that item most likely will exist in the taxonomies). CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
72. RBI on XBRL RBI adopted XBRL for Online filing of return to standardize business reporting, especially financial reporting. At present OFRS is implemented for host return such as Section 42(2) Form – A , daily return Gap, Position and Balances (GPB) and . RCA RBI launched XBRL standard for Basel – II reporting system using XBRL through the existing Online Return Filing System (ORFS) on October 6, 2008. CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
73. SEBI on XBRL The SEBI has introduced Clause 52 in the equity listing agreement, requiring listed companies to file information with the exchange only through Corporate Filing and Dissemination System (CFDS). CFDS is the portal put in place jointly by BSE and NSE and offers a XBRL-enabled common platform for listed companies to file such information, statements and reports as may be specified by BSE and NSE CA Sandesh Mundra, sandeshmundra@gmail.com
75. MCA on XBRL MCA issued Circular no. 09/2011, dated 31-3-2011: Following companies are required to file their balance sheet and profit and loss accounts in XBRL mode on or before 30-9-2011. All companies listed in India and their subsidiaries including overseas subsidiaries. All companies having paid up capital of Rs. 5 Crore and more or turnover of Rs. 100 Croreand more.
