1)Tax audit has to done as per section 44 AB of the income tax act , it related to income tax .

2)Statutory Audit is done as per section 143 of the Companies Act 2013 , as it's mandatory for all companies , related to companies Act

3)Tax audit has to be on before 30th of November

4) Statutory Audit has to be done within 6 months from the end of the Financial year.

5) Audited Financials Statement are discussed in AGM for consideration and adoption  

Tax audit intricate issues are also discussed in agm
Which "financials" will be considered at AGM ?

if Transfer pricing is applicable, then the itr filing extends up to November. but the AGM to be conducted by September

please clarify
Tax Audit is not only for sec 44AB
You did not get my question. I'm asking,in AGM WHICH financial statements are considered? Does stat auditor form opinion on TAX AUDIT financial statements? or does he audit his own set of financials ?
Financial Statements ,Audited by Satutary auditor are Considered for AGM .
