Is cost audit mandatory for all the manufacturing companies?
I am really confused between the cost audit rules and the cost accounting rules.
I understand that the Cost Audit Rules 2011 are applicable for those companies where the CG has specifically required u/s 233(B) of the Companies Act. (our company has not received any such orders so far)
Cost Accounting Rules states that it is applicable for all companies where the networth exceeds 5 crs/turnover exceeds 20 crs.
