THe institute in its general guidelines issued that the internal auditors of the company should not be its statutory auditors. even the Statutory auditors fo the company is also disallowed from writing books of the compnay of which they are apponited stat auditors. It affects the independence of the auditors.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
