Going concern concept is one of the fundamental assumptions in case of any business and the company need not disclose about its going concern. In case, the business ceases to be going concern, then there can be two possibilities--
1. The company has not reported it through notes to accounts -- In this case, the auditor should qualify the report mentioning that the company has ceased to be going concern and has not disclosed it in the books of accounts.
2. The company has disclosed this fact in notes to accounts -- In this case, the auditor need not qualify report as the management has already disclosed the same in annual accounts.
