Auditor has to be appointed within 1 month in Board and if Board does not appoint, it should be appointed in GM by members within 3 months.

However, company is not required to file Form Adt-1 for appointment of first auditor.

So, in case if you want to know, you can show its appointment within time. Else, it will remain non-compliance.
