(a) to (d):- No, Madam. The autonomous institutions are audited as per the provisions of the respective Acts governing them. There is no proposal for amendment of the Companies Act, 2013 or the two acts governing ICAI and ICWAI respectively. Similarly, Tamil Nadu State Government, has also not specified that any amendment would be carried out in the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act under which BCCI is registered.
