FA Audit cadence for Kandanchavadi firms near Kandanchavadi Bus Stop — with same-day acknowledgement delivery
Professional Fixed Asset Audit in Kandanchavadi (PIN 600096), Chennai — qualified review, a 7-year workpaper archive and fixed fees from day one. Call 9566-068-468.
A fixed asset audit is the independent verification of the existence, ownership, condition, valuation and depreciation of property, plant and equipment (PPE) recorded in the books. It is required for three reasons. First, CARO 2020 Clause 3(i) mandates the auditor to report on maintenance of proper records, physical verification at reasonable intervals and verification of title deeds. Second, AS-10 / Ind AS 16 require carrying amount to reflect actual existence and condition. Third, Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013 mandates useful-life-based depreciation, which is meaningless without a reconciled register.

The master record showing full particulars of each item of PPE including asset code, description, location, cost, date of acquisition, put-to-use date, componentisation, accumulated depreciation, written-down value and disposal details; it is the document against which physical verification is reconciled.
Records the results of the physical count of assets against the register, listing assets seen, assets not located, unrecorded assets found, condition and location, together with the discrepancy schedule and management's proposed treatment of differences.
Assigns a unique identifier, often a barcode or QR label, to each asset and maps it to the register entry so that assets can be tracked by location and custodian; underpins repeatable verification and controls over movement of assets.
Reconciles the totals of gross block, accumulated depreciation and net block per the Fixed Asset Register with the corresponding control accounts in the general ledger, explaining and clearing every reconciling item before the accounts are finalised.
Sets out asset-wise or block-wise depreciation computed under Schedule II for the financial statements and under Section 32 block-of-assets rates for the tax computation, reconciling additions, disposals and the resulting written-down values.
Documents the review of useful lives, residual values and indicators of impairment of PPE, and supports the sum-insured used for insurance; links the verified carrying amounts to Ind AS 36 impairment testing where applicable.
Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
Schedule II replaced the earlier rate-based Schedule XIV and prescribes the useful life of tangible assets over which depreciation is to be provided. It requires companies to depreciate the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life, with Part C listing indicative useful lives for classes such as buildings, plant and machinery, furniture, vehicles and computers. The Schedule mandates component accounting, so a significant part of an asset with a different useful life must be depreciated separately. Where a company adopts a useful life or residual value different from the indicative figures, the justification must be disclosed. Reliable application of Schedule II is impossible without an accurate Fixed Asset Register that captures acquisition date, cost, componentisation and location, which is precisely what a fixed asset audit verifies.
Section 143 sets out the powers and duties of the statutory auditor, including the obligation to enquire whether loans and advances are properly secured and whether the company's assets are properly recorded. To express a true and fair opinion the auditor must obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence on the existence, ownership and valuation assertions for property, plant and equipment. Physical verification of fixed assets and reconciliation to the Fixed Asset Register is the primary procedure by which the auditor tests the existence assertion, while title deeds, invoices and capitalisation records support ownership and valuation. Section 143(3) also requires the auditor to report on the adequacy of internal financial controls, which for PPE covers tagging, custody and periodic verification. A fixed asset audit produces the evidence the statutory auditor relies upon.
The Companies (Auditor's Report) Order 2020, issued under Section 143(11), requires the auditor to comment specifically on property, plant and equipment. Clause 3(i)(a) asks whether the company is maintaining proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation, of PPE and intangible assets. Clause 3(i)(b) asks whether these assets have been physically verified by management at reasonable intervals and whether any material discrepancies were noticed and properly dealt with. Clause 3(i)(c) requires verification of whether title deeds of immovable property are held in the company's name. These clauses make a documented fixed asset physical verification and a reconciled register a direct compliance requirement, and gaps translate into adverse remarks in the audit report.
Section 32 allows depreciation on tangible assets such as buildings, machinery, plant and furniture, and on specified intangible assets, that are owned wholly or partly by the assessee and used for the purposes of the business. Depreciation is computed on the written-down value of the block of assets at the prescribed rates using the block-of-assets concept, rather than asset by asset. Additional depreciation is available on new plant and machinery in specified cases. A claim for depreciation must be supported by evidence that the asset exists, is owned by the assessee and was put to use. Where a fixed asset audit reveals assets that are missing, scrapped or never installed, the depreciation claimed on them is exposed to disallowance, making the register the foundation of a defensible depreciation claim.
Ind AS 16 applies to companies within the Ind AS roadmap and aligns closely with IAS 16. It requires that PPE be measured initially at cost and subsequently under either the cost model or the revaluation model. The standard's component approach is mandatory: significant parts must be depreciated separately, and the residual value and useful life must be reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Decommissioning and site restoration costs form part of cost where an obligation exists. Ind AS 16 interacts with Ind AS 36 on impairment, so a reliable register is needed to identify cash-generating units and carrying amounts. A fixed asset audit supports Ind AS 16 by confirming physical existence, component splits, review of useful lives and correct treatment of disposals and revaluation.
Section 50 provides a special computation of capital gains where the capital asset transferred forms part of a block of assets on which depreciation has been allowed. It deems the gain to be a short-term capital gain in two situations: where the sale consideration and other reductions exceed the written-down value of the block together with the cost of assets acquired, and where the block of assets ceases to exist at the year-end. Correct application depends on knowing exactly which assets were disposed of, the consideration received and the composition of the block, all of which flow from the Fixed Asset Register. A fixed asset audit that reconciles disposals to sale invoices and gate passes helps ensure that gains under Section 50 are neither understated nor overstated.

Impairment indicators reviewed at every reporting date and recoverable amount computed as the higher of fair value less costs to dispose vs value in use. Component approach (Ind AS 16 paragraph 43-44) applied for material parts with different useful lives — building HVAC vs structural shell, plant motor vs casing.
AS-26 / Ind AS 38 require that an intangible asset be recognised only if it is identifiable (separable or arising from contractual rights), the entity controls the asset, future economic benefits are probable and cost can be measured reliably. Internally generated goodwill is not recognised. Research expenditure is expensed; development expenditure is capitalised only if...
AS-28 / Ind AS 36 require the entity to assess at each reporting date whether any indicator of impairment exists — declining market value, technological obsolescence, physical damage, restructuring plans, worse-than-expected economic performance, increase in market interest rates. If any indicator exists, the recoverable amount is determined as the higher of (a) fair value less...
A Cash-Generating Unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of cash inflows from other assets or groups (Ind AS 36 paragraph 6). Where an individual asset does not generate independent cash flows — typical for plant integrated into a manufacturing line — impairment is tested at the CGU...
Yes. Ind AS 36 paragraph 10 requires CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated to be tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whether indicators of impairment exist. The test compares the recoverable amount of the CGU (including allocated goodwill) with its carrying amount. Impairment loss is first applied to reduce goodwill, and any balance is...

“Our manufacturing unit had ₹42 crore gross block with no proper component-approach split. FilingPro carved out plant motors, control panels and structural casing under Ind AS 16 paragraph 43-44 with separate useful lives. Depreciation came down by ₹38 lakh annually with full disclosure compliance.”
“Form 3CD Clause 18 depreciation block working was a mess for our trading and warehousing business. FilingPro reconciled Schedule II useful-life depreciation to Section 32 block-of-asset WDV, computed deferred tax under AS-22 and prepared a clean tax audit working paper. No 3CD adverse comment.”
“Our title deeds for two warehouses were in the name of the previous director. CARO 2020 Clause 3(i)(c) was a real risk. FilingPro's title deed verification drive identified the gap, helped us complete the deed transfer and ensured clean CARO reporting in the next audit cycle.”
“After the Ind AS 116 transition, our 14 office leases needed ROU asset and lease liability working. FilingPro mapped each lease, derived IBR from our borrowing profile, computed PV of lease payments and built the ROU register. Tied line-item to opening retained earnings adjustment.”
“Section 32(1)(iia) additional 20% depreciation eligibility on ₹6.5 crore of new plant was missed in prior years. FilingPro's audit identified eligible additions, computed the half-rate impact (assets put to use less than 180 days), claimed the balance 10% in the next year and recovered ₹78 lakh of tax over two assessment years.”
“Goodwill of ₹14 crore from a subsidiary acquisition needed annual impairment testing under Ind AS 36 paragraph 90. FilingPro identified the CGU, computed value in use using WACC discount rate and pre-tax cash flow projection, and documented the test rigorously. Statutory audit accepted without qualification.”
