Can State department audit a Financial Year for which CGST Department has already conducted an audit

This discussion explores whether the State GST department can conduct an audit for a financial year that has already been audited by the CGST department under Section 65. While the CGST department has concluded its audit and passed an order, a new investigation has been initiated by the Bureau of Investigation for the same period. The advice suggests writing to the SGST department to inform them of the prior CGST audit and request they drop their audit, as the State Government can identify different defects.
