Normally liquor contractrs are manufacturing on behalf of the brand owners.
For carrying out the manufacturing operations, the contactors are entitled to a bittling fees per case.
To start with you can check the following specific things-
- Review of contracts
- Review of manufcaturing licence ( it has to be renewed every year, if not it may affect going concern)
- Study the excise rules for the state in which the maufcaturing plant is located ( in liquor excise is a state subject.
- Inventory valuation is key aspect.
Furtther if you can provide details regarding what type of contarctor and what is the arrangement , i can advise you further

The proprietorship firm which we are auditing have got licence for the first time in F.Y. 2009-10 and their licence didn't continue in 2010-11. To my surprise, they haven't maintained any bank account.
So is it common for such industry. Please provide me more details about auditing liquor contractors.
