Communication with previous auditor


This query is : Resolved 

(Querist)
18 May 2017 As per section 139(1) of co. Act a company should obtain a written consent from the auditor before appointment. However, as per clause 8 of part 1 of first schedule to the chartered accountant act, 1949, a ca is required to communicate with the previous auditor in writing before acceptance of appointment. It seems there is a contradiction between these 2. Without providing written consent, the company cannot appoint you, and without communicating u cannot give consent. How to resolve this?

18 May 2017 I do not see any contradiction. The auditor being appointed must communicate with the previous auditor before giving a consent to the company.
