1. What is the difference between statutory audit and internal audit?

A statutory audit is a legally required examination of a company’s financial statements to ensure compliance with applicable laws and accounting standards. An internal audit, on the other hand, is conducted to evaluate internal controls, operational efficiency, risk management, and governance processes within an organization.

2. Who is required to conduct a statutory audit?

Statutory audits are mandatory for companies registered under the Companies Act. Certain entities such as LLPs, trusts, and organizations may also require audits depending on their legal structure and regulatory requirements.

3. What is a tax audit and when is it applicable?

A tax audit is conducted under the Income Tax Act for businesses or professionals whose turnover or gross receipts exceed the prescribed limits. It ensures proper maintenance of books of accounts and compliance with tax laws.

4. Why is internal audit important for businesses?

Internal audit helps organizations identify risks, strengthen internal controls, prevent fraud, improve operational efficiency, and ensure compliance with regulations. It also supports management in better decision-making.

5. What documents are required for an audit?

The required documents typically include financial statements, accounting records, invoices, bank statements, statutory registers, tax filings, and supporting documents related to business transactions. The exact requirements may vary depending on the nature of the audit.

6. How often should internal audits be conducted?

The frequency of internal audits depends on the size, nature, and risk profile of the organization. Many companies conduct internal audits quarterly, half-yearly, or annually based on their operational needs and compliance requirements.
