What Is Audit & Assurance

An Audit Is More Than Compliance. It's Confidence in Your Numbers.

A statutory audit is a legal obligation — but a well-run audit is far more than a box to tick. It tells your board, your bankers, and your investors that your financial statements are accurate, complete, and free from material misstatement.

At PKJN & Associates LLP, we approach every audit with independence and professional rigour. We test your numbers against the underlying records, evaluate your controls, and surface issues early — so you file on time, borrow with credibility, and make decisions on figures you can trust.

Where audit looks back to verify what has already happened, our Risk Advisory practice looks forward to prevent future issues. Together, they give your business both accuracy today and resilience tomorrow.

How We Work

Our Four-Phase Audit Process

A structured engagement from understanding your business to delivering a clear, defensible report — with agreed timelines at every stage.

Planning & Risk Assessment

We understand your business, identify areas of audit risk, and agree the scope, materiality, and timeline — so the engagement is focused where it matters most.

2

Fieldwork & Testing

We test transactions and balances against source records, evaluate the design and operation of your controls, and gather sufficient, appropriate audit evidence.

3

Review & Analysis

Findings are reviewed at senior level, exceptions are analysed, and any adjustments or disclosures are discussed with your team before conclusions are finalised.

4

Reporting & Feedback

We issue a clear audit report and a management letter highlighting control gaps and practical recommendations to strengthen your systems going forward.

A statutory audit is conducted under the Companies Act 2013 and applies to every company (and to LLPs above prescribed thresholds), examining whether financial statements present a true and fair view. A tax audit is conducted under Section 44AB of the Income Tax Act and applies to businesses and professionals above specified turnover limits, focusing on compliance with income tax provisions. Many businesses require both — at PKJN & Associates LLP we handle them in an integrated manner to avoid duplication.
Every company registered under the Companies Act 2013 must have its accounts audited annually, regardless of turnover, profit, or size — this includes private limited, public, and one-person companies. LLPs require a statutory audit if annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh or capital contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh. We confirm the exact applicability for your entity before beginning.
A tax audit is generally required where business turnover exceeds ₹1 crore in a financial year. This limit rises to ₹10 crore where cash receipts and cash payments are each 5% or less of the total. For professionals, a tax audit applies where gross receipts exceed ₹50 lakh. We assess your specific position, as presumptive taxation and other provisions can affect applicability.
Internal audit is mandatory for certain classes of companies under Section 138 of the Companies Act 2013 — including listed companies and unlisted or private companies crossing prescribed turnover, borrowing, or paid-up capital thresholds. Even where it is not legally required, we recommend internal audit for growing businesses, as it strengthens controls and reduces fraud and compliance risk. It pairs naturally with our Risk Advisory work.
Yes. The earlier CA-certified GST audit under Section 35(5) has been replaced by a self-certified reconciliation statement. Businesses with aggregate turnover above ₹5 crore in a financial year must file Form GSTR-9C along with the annual return in GSTR-9. We assist with preparing and reconciling these returns — matching your books to GST filings, resolving input tax credit mismatches, and ensuring accurate annual compliance.
Typically we require your financial statements, trial balance and general ledger, bank statements, purchase and sales registers, GST and TDS returns, fixed asset register, statutory registers, and relevant agreements. We share a tailored document checklist at the start of every engagement so nothing is left to the last minute.
Duration depends on the type and scope of audit and the state of your records. A tax audit for an SME with organised books typically takes 1–3 weeks. A statutory audit for a mid-sized company usually takes 3–6 weeks. We agree a clear timeline aligned to your statutory filing deadlines at the outset — no open-ended billing, and no surprises.
