14 January 2013 Plz any one can tell me about the Compliance require for Branch engaging in Jewellery Business.

14 January 2013 Thank you Sir .....and Let me cleared about the Audit Provision that When the Branch should have to be got Audited its Account..?
Its Compulsory for Audit or based on turnover etc. ?


14 January 2013 Turnover Based provisions are under the Income Tax Act. Where as in case of a company, compulsory audit is required under the Companies Act. I wish your branch should be get audited under both the statutes.
.

14 January 2013 Means the Branch has to be Considered as Separate Entity and nothing to get merge with the Head Office for Compliance under Several Act(Law)...?
