In case of scrunity , the ROC may ask for the explanation for non filing 23B and can impose penalty accordingly.

04 August 2012 I agree with you that intimation by auditor as per section 224 is applicable in case auditor is appointed in AGM.

But it is however advisable to make the filing of form 23B in case of first auditor so that we can use its SRN for entering in Form 23AC at the time of filing BS for the first year.
