Secretarial Audits

Secretarial Audit is an independent verification of compliance with all applicable Corporate Laws by listed companies and certain other categories of companies. The applicable industry and business laws are complex and non-compliances would expose the company to immeasurable risks. Secretarial Audit gives comfort to the regulators, stakeholders and management that company has a disciplined approach to evaluate and improve effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.

Stock Broking & Commodity Broking Audits

The Exchange mandated half yearly internal audit of stock brokers has doubled up as a strong measure to address various systemic and customer centric risks. With FMC merging with SEBI, the regulatory requirements for commodity derivative broking will gradually get synchronizedwith those of stock broking. The synchronization process has already been initiated by SEBI and the results have been evident at the grass roots. It can be safely expected that all commodity derivative brokers also will be subjected to the half yearly internal audit as in the case of stock brokers.

SVVS aims at providing stock broking and commodity broking audits through an online audit platform 'eGavel Audit' of our associate company. This will ensure considerable reduction in non-compliances and in turn will result in transparent audit trails, thereby giving a total comfort to the top management and the Board of Directors.

IP Audits

An Intellectual Property (IP) audit is a systematic review of the IP owned, used or acquired by a business so as to assess and manage risk, remedy problems and implement best practices in IP asset management. It also involves undertaking a comprehensive review of a company’s IP assets, related agreements, relevant policies, and compliance procedures” – WIPO

IP audits can be general in scope or can be focused on a particular event or type of IP. General purpose audits help start-ups and established companies to not only assess and protect their IP, but also identify IP development needs, opportunities, and risks.

Concurrent Audits

Our services include concurrent audit of regulatory and legal compliances. Concurrent audit is an examination, which is contemporaneous with the occurrence of transactions or is carried out as near thereto as possible. It attempts to shorten the interval between a transaction and its examination by an independent person not involved in its documentation. There is an emphasis in favour of substantive checking in key areas rather than test checking. This audit is essentially a management process integral to various internal control systems.

Social Audits

The companies listed on Social Stock Exchange are expected to make certain disclosures that are listed under the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This includes getting their annual impact report audited by a Social Auditor. Additional disclosures of fund utilization are also required on a quarterly basis from Social Enterprises. We SVVS as a social auditor adhere to the Social Audit Standards (SAS).
