Oops sory the my questn is upto the part of audit only nt d pre incorporatn contract.

Hi Saman,

 

IN NORMAL CASE, CA who is Stat Auditor of Company can be its Tax Auditor and VICE VERSA. But in your case, CA is visiting daily to Company and is being paid monthly remuneration also. Hence, IN SUBSTANCE, he has become an employee of Company.

 

Sec. 226 of Co Act - Officer / Employee of Company cannot be appointed as Stat Audit of Co. Hence, Mr. A cannot be appointed as Stat Auditor of Agni Ltd.
