Key Benefits of Internal Audit Support Services in Bangalore

The audit due date is close, and there’s still a pending workload with not enough bandwidth – this is the situation of several Bangalore companies. Sounds familiar? Internal audit outsourcing services help navigate through these challenges.

Limited Time

The audit team sends you a lengthy PBC list, but you have a small financial team handling everything on their own. Suddenly, time seems to run, and the team does everything under a crunch. The overload burdens, but an external audit team offers support and helps maintain focus.

Big 4 Audit Unpreparedness

Your company requires a Big 4 audit, but the team isn’t ready for such technicalities and extensive documentation. The SGKK audit team has substantial experience working with the Big 4 and can help you prepare the necessary documents that will fulfil the requirements on the first go.

ICFR Documentation Gap

Is your documentation incomplete or out-of-date? The auditors might flag an ICFR scrutiny that the existing financial team might not be able to handle. Our team rebuilds documentation from the ground up, ensuring that the control measures are in place before the final audit.

Audit Novices

The majority of startups have financial teams that aren’t fully prepared to handle a high-scale statutory audit. The auditors might come in asking for documentation that they haven’t prepared before. Our team builds your report with regular assessments, ensuring that your company statements are ready to answer all their questions.
Scope of Work

Our Internal Audit Support Service Offerings in Bangalore

Our SGKK audit team offers comprehensive services from pre-audit to post-audit stages, including:

Internal Audit Process We Follow

1. Pre-Audit Assessment

The audit grunt work begins even before the auditors start their assessment. Our pre-audit tasks include:

Assessing Audit Readiness

The SGKK team reviews last year's audit reports, manages letter points and opens items that must be taken care of before the current year's audit.

Reviewing PBC List

We identify what needs to be addressed and what should be built from scratch, along with the time needed to prepare every item.

Finalising Schedule

We prepare the trial balance analysis, lead schedules, sub-schedules, and reconciliation documentation for fixed assets, debtors, creditors, banks, provisions, and accruals.

Assessing ICFR

Our actual work begins once we review the existing Internal Control over Financial Reporting (ICFR) documentation and identify the gaps that need to be fixed.

Briefing the Team

We schedule a meeting with your financial team to discuss what the current status is and what is expected when preparing documentation for the external auditors.

2. Fieldwork Completion and Query Management

Now our actual work begins in full force. We take care of:

Auditor Query Tracker

The team logs and tracks all audit queries, making sure your team is ready for a response for every cross-questioning.

Response Preparation and Delivery

The team ensures the auditor gets all supporting documents and reconciliations within the stipulated time and without any error.

Coordination with Auditors

We become the point of contact with the auditors and attend every review meeting on your behalf. Our aim is to maintain clear and transparent communication with the external reviewers.

Complete ICFR Support

Be it document preparation or evidence collection, our audit support team is always available for any ICFR-related queries. We help you compile all the necessary information before auditors start their process.

CARO & Ind AS Compliance Support

In case your company is subject to Ind AS or CARO reporting, we review documents in advance and prepare the supporting evidence so you are audit-ready.

3. Audit Closure and Review

After the audit, the SGKK team focuses on the following:

Reviews Management Letter

We review the audit, identify the root causes of problems, and build a plan to overcome them in the next financial year.

Tracks Next-Year Observations

Our audit team conducts a full-fledged internal audit risk assessment to track every item that was flagged in the latest audit and makes sure it doesn't become a problem next year.

Plans for the Next Audit

The team builds a structured plan for the next audit so the same mistakes don’t occur again.
