The Details

Audit for IT and Software Companies: what to know

The audit points specific to software

Revenue on fixed-price projects and time-and-material contracts is tested against contracts and delivery records. Export invoices are matched to bank advices, and unbilled revenue or deferred revenue is checked at year end. GST treatment of export of services and the LUT in force are confirmed.

Transactions with overseas associated enterprises can trigger transfer pricing reporting, and Form 3CEB has its own date, separate from the standard tax audit date. We flag these at scoping. See tax audit and GSTR-9C reconciliation.

Audit Fees: Fixed in Writing After Free Scoping

The ICAI does not prescribe audit fees, so we do not publish a list price that would not fit your case. We scope your books for free and quote one fixed fee in writing, and you pay only after you accept it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do software exporters need transfer pricing reports?

Only if there are transactions with overseas associated enterprises above the prescribed limits. We check your agreements and flag where Form 3CEB could be needed.

How is unbilled revenue audited?

We review contracts, delivery acceptance and timesheets to confirm that revenue earned but not billed is recognised and supported.

Do forex differences affect the audit?

Yes. We test conversion rates used for invoices and receipts and the treatment of exchange gains or losses.

Who needs a tax audit, and what is the due date this year?

A business needs a tax audit if turnover is above Rs 1 crore (Rs 10 crore where cash receipts and cash payments are each 5% or less), a professional if gross receipts are above Rs 50 lakh, and certain presumptive-scheme cases also trigger it. For AY 2026-27 (FY 2025-26), CBDT's press release of 28 September 2026 moved the audit report date from 30 September to 21 October 2026 and the return date for covered audit cases from 31 October to 21 November 2026. Transfer pricing cases follow separate dates, so confirm which group you fall in.

When is an internal audit mandatory?

It is mandatory for every listed company. An unlisted public company needs one if paid-up capital is Rs 50 crore or more, turnover is Rs 200 crore or more, bank or financial-institution borrowings exceed Rs 100 crore, or deposits are Rs 25 crore or more. A private company needs one if turnover is Rs 200 crore or more or borrowings from banks and financial institutions exceed Rs 100 crore, tested on the preceding financial year. Smaller businesses can adopt it voluntarily, and some lenders and investors ask for it.

Can SVT & Associates audit my company and also keep its books?

No. Section 144 of the Companies Act bars a company's auditor from providing certain services to that company, including accounting and book-keeping, internal audit and design of financial information systems. We tell you this upfront so you do not end up with a conflict that a regulator or lender can challenge. If you need one of those services, we can arrange it through a separate engagement for a company we do not audit.

What documents do you need to start an audit?

Trial balance or the full accounting data file, bank statements and bank reconciliations, sales and purchase registers, GST returns and reconciliations, TDS returns and challans, fixed asset register, loan and borrowing confirmations, stock records, and the previous year's audited financials. Statutory records such as the minute book and registers are needed for companies. We send a checklist after the first call so you only collect what applies to you.

How long does an audit take?

The main driver is how complete and reconciled your books are when we start. Clean books with bank reconciliations done move quickly, while backlog, missing vouchers or unreconciled GST and TDS add time. After reviewing your trial balance and documents, we give you a timeline in writing before you commit.
