In the consolidated statement of accounts, share premium pertaining to holding company wil be eliminated against the investment in subsidiary in the holding company and balance share premium will be transferred to minority interests. This will smoothen the consolidation process.
However, in case if the share premium is restricted by law than, in there is also an international practice to recreate the share preimum account at the consolidation level by debiting the retained earnings and crediting the share premium account so that its identity is not lost at the Group financial statements.
