A clarification amendment of this kind will have a retrospective effect, so if the primary act was already in effect when the Constitution took effect, the amending act will also be included in that body of law. (It became effective at a time before it was approved)


The meaning of the word "retrospective" is "to look back." Therefore, the retrospective law is a law that has backdated effect or is effective since before the time it is passed

As if the amended provision was in effect always or from a date mentioned (in past)

means it is treated as a law already existing and not as amendment

For example, if we charge depreciation on SLM and have been doing so for 5 years, We now use the WDV approach. If the change is to be retrospective, then the entire depreciation charged during the past 5 years will be adjusted according to WDV by adjusting the same in the current year

Example is fine. Nothing wrong. Just corrected the concept so that others so donâ??t misinterpret. No need to be sorry. We all are here to learn.
