Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for auditor rotation concerning a private limited company that is a 100% subsidiary of a listed company. Even though it's a private company, it's considered a deemed public company under the Companies Act if it's a subsidiary of a public company. Therefore, auditor rotation rules apply if its paid-up capital is Rs 10 crore or more, or if its borrowings exceed Rs 50 crore. If these thresholds are met, an audit firm can serve two five-year terms (10 years total), and an individual auditor can serve one five-year term, followed by a five-year cooling-off period.

It is as per norms

Rotation for a subsidiary of a listed company:
• Rule 5 of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules covers: listed companies; unlisted public companies with paid-up capital of Rs 10 crore or more; private companies with paid-up capital of Rs 50 crore or more; companies with public borrowings of Rs 50 crore or more.
• A private company that's a 100% subsidiary of a listed company is still a private company (unless deemed public under Sec 2(71) proviso: a private company that's a subsidiary of a public company is deemed a public company for the Act). So it's deemed public. Rotation applies if its paid-up capital is Rs 10 crore or more, or borrowings are Rs 50 crore or more.
• If below these thresholds, no rotation. Otherwise, an audit firm can serve 2 terms of 5 years (10 years), an individual 1 term of 5 years, then a 5-year cooling off.
