OVERVIEW - Change Of Auditor

What is Annual Compliance For a One person Company?

Section 140(2) of the Act outlines the procedure for an auditor’s resignation. It mandates that the auditor must submit a statement of resignation, as prescribed in the Rules, to the Registrar within 30 days from the date of resignation. In the case of a Government Company or a Government-owned company, the auditor must also file this statement with the Comptroller and Auditor-General of India.

The resignation statement must clearly state the reasons for resigning along with any relevant details. Timely intimation to the Registrar is crucial, as failure to do so attracts penalties under the Act.

If an auditor fails to file the resignation statement, they are subject to a penalty of ₹50,000 or an amount equal to their remuneration, whichever is lower. In case of continued non-compliance, an additional penalty of ₹500 per day will be levied, up to a maximum of ₹5 lakh.
