26 August 2022 Dear Friends,
As we know under the Companies Act 2013 the statutory auditor is to be appointed for 5 years at every 6th AGM and as per the amendment in sec 139, the ratification of appointment at every AGM is not necessary for certain class of Companies.

My question is what disclosure is to be given in case of a Small Company regarding appointment of statutory auditors between the financial years from first re-appointment to next re-appointment in.

1. The Directors Report
2. Notice of AGM

Can anyone share the draft of Directors report and AGM notice a small company.

Thanks
P.c. Joshi
