yes Statutory Audit is mandatory for every company whether public or private.
Tax Audit is mandatory if a Assessee having gross receipt/sale above of Rs.60,00,000 and for professional Receipt is above 15,00,000.
First Auditior is appoinated by BOD within 1 month from date of reg. of the company.IF BOD fails, auditor is appoinated by share holder passing a board solutaion.

yes nitesh is correct, because tax audit threshoul limit for companies is 60,00,000 and other than companies [individual, HUF, Firm] is 15,00,000, which was earlier 40,00,000 and 10,00,000 respectively.
so tax audit is not only applicable 4 corporate but also other than corporate also

Chill !
Was it a joke Shruti ?
There are mainly 2 kinds Audit for a Company. One is Sattutory Audit & another is Internal Audit.
Statutory Audit is Compulsory for all companies whether Private or Public as well as a Company registered under Section 25.
however Internal Audit is not compulsory unless the Company is listed or having Average turnover exceeding 5 Crores in immaditely preceding 3 financial years & having paid up share Capital & reserves exceeding Rs. 50 lacs (including Revaluation resesrve & Preference Share capital but excluding Share Application money).
Internal Audit is just a process of evaluating managements performance & operational activities.
its almost equal o operational audit with a minute difference.
Since the Company is managed by Board of directors, there must be a proper control & survillance over there activities, thats why Statutory Audit was made compulsory.
I hope this information was helpful.
