Chapter XVI – Audit
\nThe chapter states the provision relating to the audit to be undertaken by the GST authorities. It prescribes the rights and obligation of the GST authorities in the event of conducting an audit. Not much is proposed in the revised draft law.
\nOne change that has been proposed is that now on the completion of audit, the proper officer has to inform the taxable person, whose records were audited, of the findings within thirty days of the completion of audit. Earlier in the old draft the time limit was not prescribed. This is a welcome step as currently there is no time limit for informing the assessee of the findings. <\/p>\n

\nAnother proposed change is insertion of a new section 65 which prescribes Power of CAG to call for information for audit. This section grants the CAG to call for information, records and returns from the proper officer who will be responsible to furnish such information sought to enable the CAG to conduct audit as required under the Comptroller and Auditor General's (Duties, Powers and Conditions of Service) Act (56 of 1971). Now it seems that AG audit has also been given powers to conduct the audit at the premises of assesee. Earlier there was no provision and it was also subject to litigation. But now both the acts are co-related and hence there cannot be any litigation on the issue.
