What is a statutory audit?

An audit is an independent chartered accountant's examination of your books and financial statements. Company audits are compulsory under the Companies Act, 2013; tax audits and LLP audits apply above set turnover or contribution limits.

How is the auditor appointed and changed?

The board appoints a new company's first auditor within 30 days of incorporation (section 139(6)). After that the members appoint the auditor at the annual general meeting for a term of five years (section 139(1)), and the company files Form ADT-1 within 15 days. Resignations are reported in ADT-3.

What do we check that clients often miss?

Since 1 April 2023 a company's accounting software must keep an audit trail (edit log) that cannot be disabled, and the auditor reports on it. We also test related-party transactions, stock records and statutory dues, because these are the commonest CARO qualifications.

If an auditor finds a fraud of ₹1 crore or more, section 143(12) requires a report to the Central Government in Form ADT-4; smaller frauds are reported to the audit committee or board.
