30 December 2014 Dear Sir,

Re: Appointment of Auditors

1. Individiual auditor means Proprietory firm ?
2. A small company has appointed a Proprietory firm since 2008-09 , is it the retiring auditor is to be appointed for 3 years ?
3. As the rotation is not applicable to small companies, shall the same auditor can be re-appointed as was being done earlier. In that case can we write in the AGM Notice (Y.E.31.03.2014) : To appoint Auditors and fix their remuneration.
Thanks

31 December 2014 1. Yes

2. The appointment has to be made for a period of 5 years. 3year transitional period is applicable to listed companies and class of companies only..

3. Appoint the auditor of 5 years... subject to ratification at each ensuing AGM's... You can go ahead with your AGM notice... but next year onwards make sure to change the wordings to "ratification" instead of "appointment".
