Hello Sindhuri, I think it's AS and not AAS that you're hearing. AS - Accounting Standards. SA - Standards on Auditing. The above full forms are quite explanatory. Regards, Subhash.
Earlier SA's were known as AAS.. no more diff is thr.
AAS and SA both have same meaning AAS was replaced by SA, You will learn about SA in IPCC . SA's are standards on auditing while AS's r standards on accounting.

Earlier AAS (Auditing and Assurance Standards) were prevalent and these were converged with international audit standards and subsequently they are known as SA (Standards on Auditing).

From the exam point of view SA (Standards on Auditing) are applicable.
