A tax audit is a process to verify whether the books of accounts prepared by a taxpayer comply with the generally accepted accounting principles and the provisions of the Income-tax Act. It is intended to ensure that the books of account and other records are properly maintained and correctly compute the taxpayer’s actual income.
The tax audit does not give the assesses immunity from scrutiny assessment or disallowance of expenses. A tax audit can be conducted only by a Chartered Accountant in practice.
