Audits aren’t just for big companies. Investors, banks, and regulators often ask for audited financials, even from early-stage startups.
Preparation Steps:
- Reconcile the books of accounts
- Maintain vendor and customer invoices
- Ensure ROC and GST filings are up to date
- Formalize payroll and reimbursements
- Fix documentation gaps in board meetings and share issues
Startup audits also boost credibility with VCs. Dugain Advisors provides audit readiness support tailored to fast-growing startups and funded companies.
