Intercompany holdings are divided into three types
Purchasing company holding shares in selling company

Selling company holding shares in purchasing company

inter company holdings

Let us assume the assets of selling company (excluding inter company investment)=Rs.1600000/-
Share capital of selling company = 100000
Fair value of purchasing company shares= Rs.10/-
Issue price of purchasing company shares= Rs.20/-
Share exchange ratio= 1 share for each share of selling company

Computation of purchase consideration

Payments method:

 Step:1

 Calculate number of shares to be issued by purchasing company to selling company
Exchange ratio= 1:1
Existing total shares of selling company = 100000 so total number of shares issued by purchasing company will be 100000shares

Step:2
Deduct number of shares already held by the selling company from the total shares issued by purchasing company
As the selling company holding 20000shares the same will be deducted from total shares issued by the purchasing company

Step:3
Purchase consideration is the aggregate of:

    A. Net number of shares arrived (100000-20000)X20             Rs.16,00,000
    B.   Cash                                                                                  ----0----
  C.  Total                                                                                                                                                                                                    Rs.16,00,000


Net assets method

Step:1
Calculate net asset of selling company at agreed value or fair value , including investment in selling company at fair value
Rs.18,00,000+20000X10=20,00,000/-

Step:2
Determine the mode of discharge it is either by cash or shares at agreed value

     20,00,000/20=100000 shares

Step:3
Deduct number of shares already held by the selling company in purchasing company.
20000shares

Step:4
Purchase consideration is the aggregate of:

   A.   Net number of shares arrived (100000-20000)X20                     Rs.16,00,000
   B.   Cash                                                                                         ----0----
  C.  Total                                                                                                                                                                                                           Rs.16,00,000
