ICAI to review financial statements of IndusInd Bank

'It has been decided in the FRRB Board meeting today that FRRB of ICAI will undertake the review of the financial statements and the statutory auditor's reports of the IndusInd Bank Limited for the financial years 2023–24 and 2024–25,' ICAI President Charanjot Singh Nanda told PTI on Thursday. The institute's Financial Reporting Review Board (FRRB) will carry out the review. New Delhi, May 29 (PTI) The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) will review fraud-hit IndusInd Bank's financial statements for 2023-24 and 2024-25. FRRB conducts the review of financial statements of companies to assess compliance with Accounting Standards, Standards on Auditing, Schedule II and III of the Companies Act, 2013, among others. Also, FRRB assesses compliance with various guidance notes on accounting and auditing, and master circulars/directions issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Starting with a March 10 disclosure about a potential hit to the net worth because of incorrect recognition of derivative trades over the last two years, the last two months have been tumultuous for IndusInd Bank. In March, the bank reported a Rs 1,979 crore accounting lapse in its derivative portfolio, followed by its internal audit review finding Rs 674 crore incorrectly recorded as interest from microfinance business, besides a Rs 595 crore 'unsubstantiated balances' in 'other assets' of balance sheet. On Wednesday, markets regulator Sebi barred former CEO of IndusInd Bank, Sumant Kathpalia, and four other senior officials from accessing the securities markets in connection with an alleged insider trading in the bank's shares.

Corp affairs ministry orders probe against Gensol Engineering, BluSmart

The corporate affairs ministry has ordered a probe into the affairs of crisis-hit Gensol Engineering and BluSmart Mobility for alleged violations of companies law, according to officials. Gensol Engineering came under the regulatory scanner for alleged fund diversions and corporate governance lapses after Sebi, in April, passed an order barring the company's promoters Anmol Singh Jaggi and Puneet Singh Jaggi from the securities market for various violations. BluSmart Mobility, which offers ride-hailing services, is promoted by Anmol Singh Jaggi. The officials on Tuesday said the ministry ordered an investigation against the companies last week under Section 210 of the Companies Act, 2013. Under Section 210, the ministry has powers to order a probe into the affairs of a company on various grounds, including in public interest. Earlier, the ministry had said it would take necessary action in the matter after examining the Sebi order. The order by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), on April 15, came against the Gensol promoters amid accusations of siphoning off loan funds from their publicly-listed company Gensol Engineering for personal use, raising concerns over corporate governance and financial misconduct. Meanwhile, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) is likely to complete the review of the financial statements of Gensol Engineering Ltd and BluSmart Mobility in six months. ICAI's Financial Reporting Review Board (FRRB) is reviewing the financial statements of the two companies for the financial year 2023-24. FRRB conducts the review of financial statements of companies to assess compliance with Accounting Standards, Standards on Auditing, Schedule II and III of the Companies Act, 2013, among others. Also, FRRB assesses compliance with various guidance notes on accounting and auditing, and master circulars/directions issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Gensol is also being probed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
