Term of auditors for rotation

Hi. I had a query relating to rotation of auditors. If an auditor firm has been appointed in a pvt ltd Co for 2nd term and then in 2nd year of the 2nd term the Co comes under the applicability of sec 139(2) then how are we going to calculate the total term of the auditor. Will previous term be taken into account in this situation or the auditor can be appointed for one more term?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores the complexities of auditor rotation for private limited companies, particularly when Section 139(2) becomes applicable mid-term. Participants debate whether previous auditor terms should be counted towards the limit or if the new rules apply prospectively from the financial year they become effective. The core question is how to accurately calculate the total auditor tenure in such scenarios.

Yes we need to take previous term.
As per my understanding previous term will not include ,it's applicable from the FY when 139(2) applied ...because effect of 139(2) is prospective in nature not retrospective
