RAJ KUMAR

Dear Experts,
I am associated with a Pvt Ltd company as Deputy Manager in Finance & Accounts.

My query is:
My company Statutory auditors are also doing as tax auditors and filing Income tax returns on behalf of us.

Recently, my company faced due diligence audit in the process of merger with another company. The due diligence auditors pointed out errors committed by tax auditors in the last 3 years Income tax computation and arrived to pay additional tax liability to the tune of 60 Lakhs. We informed the same thing to our tax auditors about the error occurred in computation of income and tax liability. But their contention on the above issue is overlook happened at our end also.

Now, Just I want to know, Who is the ultimate person responsible for preparation of Computation of Income and tax liability and who is responsible for any mistakes or errors committed.

My contention is, Auditors are professionally qualified and experts in preparation of IT returns. Being appointed as tax auditors of the company, they are also held responsible for preparation of accurate IT computation and filing of returns. We are simply relying on them on the assumption that they are into the filed of full time practice and they know better than us because of full time involvement in the field of practice. we are limited to provide the information as requested by tax auditors.

Now, just I want to know, who is the final person responsible for this error.
Is it really again company responsible to check the errors done by tax auditors.
If that is the case, then why to appoint and pay tax audit fees to them.

Please reply to the query with relevant guidelines provided by ICAI so that we can explain the same to Due diligence auditors.
