Could ne1 provide me a checklist on notes to accounts and Audit report.

So far as FBT is considered it is levied only on the specified expense which doesnot include award.But however if its nature is such that it can be classified under prespecified head than the question of liabilty arises so you first narrate the nature of transaction to me for crystal clear answer
