Corporate Accounting is a specialized branch of accounting that focuses on the unique financial recording and reporting requirements of companies or corporations. It deals with complex transactions specific to the corporate structure, such as the issuance of shares and debentures, company mergers and acquisitions, the preparation of consolidated financial statements for group companies, and liquidation accounting. The field is strictly governed by corporate law (like the Companies Act) and accounting standards to ensure transparency and protect the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders.
