Every company is required to appoint its first auditor and thereafter appoint or re-appoint auditors in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act.

The filing includes details of the auditor, period of appointment, membership number, firm registration number (FRN), and the relevant Board Resolution or Shareholders' Resolution, as applicable. Delay in filing may attract additional filing fees under Section 403 of the Companies Act, 2013 and may result in penalties for non-compliance.
