Audit by a Chartered Accountant or a Cost Accountant – Section 35(5) of the CGST Act/ SGST Act read with Rule 80(3) of the CGST/SGST Rules, 2017
Every registered person whose turnover during a financial year exceeds the prescribed limit of Rs. 2 Crore shall get his accounts audited by a Chartered Accountant or a Cost Accountant.
It is to be noted very carefully here that though in Section 35(5) the term “turnover” has been used, yet it shall mean “aggregate turnover”.
