An auditor is prohibited from providing certain non-audit services during their term and cooling-off period under Section 144 of the Companies Act, 2013. Engaging in stock verification—often considered a management function—can jeopardize the auditor's independence, potentially disqualifying them from reappointment and creating a conflict of interest.
