Yes, you can consider your financial year from 01/02/2013 to 31/03/2014. The Financial year of the Company can be more than 12 months but it should not exceed 15 months without ROC's approval. [Section 210(4)].
The first AGM of the Company should be held within 18 months from the date of incorporation. Therefore your latest date of AGM can be 31/07/2014.
Annual filing can be done within 30 days (Form 23AC & 23ACA) and 60 days (Form 20B) from the date of AGM.
Regarding appointment of auditors - First auditors should be appointed within 1 month from the incorporation of company by the Board of Directors. If BOD fails to do this, they can be appointed in a General Meeting.
