As per section 138 of Indian Companies Act 2013 read with Rule 13 Of Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, certain class of companies are required to appoint Internal Auditors first condition being turnover exceeding INR 200 crores during preceding financial year.
It's not very clear whether this section will still be applicable if the turnover falls below cut off .Please advice.
Example - 2017- 18 : turnover = INR 250 crores , so the company is mandatorily required to appoint internal auditor on its payroll before 30th september 2018.
Now , in 2019-20 : turnover = INR 100 crores( assuming) , will the company still be required to employ internal auditor on its payroll ? Or every year the appoint is subject to the the realised turnover ?
