Appointment of auditor

Stat Audit 977 views 5 replies

A person is disqualified from being appointed as auditor of a company if he was disqualified from being appointed as aduitor of its holding or subsidary or the subisidary of that comapny's holding company......is the disqualification mentioned u/s.226 of companies act.

Now it is apparent that if a person is disqualified from being appointed as auditor of a company, he is also disqualified from being appointed as auditor of that comapnies subsidary, but for the subsidary of its subsidary.

For example......    A is subsidary of B. C is subsidary of A.Now if a person was disqualied from being appointed as auditor of B.Then he is also disqualified from bein appointed as auditor of A but not C.

Am i correct???????????????

no..

auditor is  disqualified in A as well as C also.

It is mentioned in Section 226 subsection (4) "A person shall also not be qualified for appointment as auditor of a company if he is disqualified for appointment as auditor of any other body corporate which is that company‘s subsidiary or holding company or a subsidiary of that company’s holding company, or would be so disqualified if the body corporate were a company.

I agree with Mr. Devang that the person is also disqualified in A as well as C.

Mr.Keval, agree with you.

But that definition doesn cover  subisdary's subsidary company..........????

Hai Trinath.

"Company's Subsidiary" in the definition will cover subsidiary's subsidiary company also.

ya dhanabal, thank you.

Subsidary's subsidary is  deemed to be a subsidary as per sec.5 of the act.

so he can not be appointed
