In our company after auditor has resigned and subsequently the same person is to be reappointed as auditor. Auditor insists on conducting of EGM and re-appoint him in EGM.

I would like to know whether the appointing in EGM is required if the same auditor is being appointed.

Also, I would like to whether the Form 23B is required to be filed in this case as well.

Pls need urgent help on this.

Dear Friends,

I would like to have your expert suggestion on the related topic i.e. Auditors.

Suppose a auditor firm is propsoed to be appointed as auditor of the company in the Board Meeting and notice of that also sent to all shareholders. The auditor is appointed in the AGM but when the auditor is offered appointment letter, he refuses to accept and sends resignation letter. The auditor further does not intimate the MCA through form 23B.

Please let me know the further procedure of filing the Auditor regination with MCA as on date (Feb, 2014) and procedure for appointment of new auditor in time as per companies act. For your kind information if AGM has been held on 28th september, 2013

I am unable to understand complexity of the matter, hope you will certainly guide me.

Looking forward to your kind reply

Thanks and Regards,

Harvinder
