Audit fees

This query is : Resolved 

13 October 2011 Hello Experts,

A friend and I recently started a Pvt Ltd. We took the help of a friend's father who is a CA for auditing and filing. The audit fees that he charged, seemed very high to us - however, he claimed that this was the least, as per the ICAI standards. I've been searching for a link that can support his claim but haven't been able to find such.

Can you please point me to any source? We are considering that utilizing the resources of some other CA if it turns out that this gentleman is indeed charging on the higher side.

After a lot of searching, I stumbled upon this website. I would appreciate any help in this regard from any expert.

Thank you.
