Quick Summary
Yes, it is mandatory to file Form ADT-3 when an auditor resigns from a private limited company. This form is filed by the retiring auditor, not the company, to inform the MCA of their resignation. This ensures the auditor is not held liable for any company affairs after their departure. The company must then appoint a new statutory auditor, either at the AGM or to fill a casual vacancy, as per Section 139 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Yes it is mandatory to file Adt3 for auditor resignation as per companies act and appoint the statutory auditor either in agm Or the case may be as in the case of casual vacancy and 5 yrs appointment as per section 139(8) and (1) (2) of Cos act 2013

ADT-3 is a form needs to be filed by the Retiring Auditor and not by the Company... it is an intimation from the Outgoing auditor to the MCA that he is leaving or separating with the entity, so that he should not be held liable for the liabilities or events arising after his/her resignation..
