Is tax audit compulsory for companies irrespective of their
income?

Answer Posted / tax beginner

AFAIK

Tax Audit is compulsory for Listed Companies. Tax Audit is
conducted to not only calculate Taxable Income as per IT
Act because it may differ from Income(Profit) as per
Companies Act but also for certification by Statutory
Auditors that The company is arriving at taxable Income
after taking into consideration all relevant
clauses/sections of Income Tax Act 1961.

Tax Audit is conducted to also verify / certify whether the
Book Profit shown by the Assesee is properly arrived at for
the purpose of Tax Payment and is in compliance with
relevant sections of the Income Tax Act.In Tax Audit
various deductions claimed by Assesse are disclosed,If any
deviation from standard clauses is found the same is
disallowed and added back to profit. e.g. Clause 17(e)
Fines and penalties etc.

Proper Disclosure is also one area wherein the Tax Audit is
required , I think (even though am not sure) that TAR is
filed with ROC for public usage along with 3CA and 3CD

The CST assessement for the FY 2006-07 is completed on 31-3- 2010 and the same is received by dealer on 22-4-10. The question is that the dealer colud not produced the original H Forms at the time time asst. except the photostat copies filed. But the CTO not allowed and calculate tax at net 4% on H Forms turnover. CTO is saying that it is time barred by 31-3-10. Therefore even after produced we can not revise.
