Tax Audit is required if turnover or gross receipts exceed the limits set under Section 44AB. Each AOP might need a separate audit if they meet the criteria. Ind AS Preparation is necessary for financial reporting for companies adopting Ind AS. The financial statements of the company should include the JVs in a manner consistent with Ind AS, even if the AOPs themselves might not be preparing Ind AS compliant financials independently. Therefore, you need to plan for both: Conducting tax audits for entities (including AOPs) that meet the criteria under tax laws. Preparing financial statements according to Ind AS, ensuring that the consolidation or reflection of JVs' financials is done appropriately.
