By law, opinion can be obtained from number of experts. Authorized auditor can be appointed or changed by managing committee in writing.

Thank You sir... It means, If i get opinion from another CS/CA then Can we (client) pay charges to the CS/CA? Is there any valid questions from current CA/CS?

Sometimes there is hope of better solution in case of controversial issue/s. Secondly, if management wishes to change current auditor from next term for its arrogant behavior, this way one can try new professional.. etc etc. there can be other reason/s which only client can clarify.

If client has doubt or doesn't get satisfactory solution from you, he/she can refer any another professional. He/ she is not bound to accept your opinions all the time.
