Internal Audit & Risk Advisory.
The five things you need to know.
A planned, risk-based review of your processes, controls and compliance posture - designed for the audit committee, not the file room.
Listed companies, mid-to-large promoter-led closely held businesses, manufacturing groups with ₹100 Cr+ turnover.
Quarterly cycles. Walk-throughs first, then analytics on full populations. Always validated with process owners.
A one-page executive summary, a structured findings register, root-cause-led recommendations, and our presence in the audit-committee close-out.
Quarterly engagements (3-4 weeks per cycle); annual IFC review (4-6 weeks).
What we do.
We run internal audit programmes for promoters and audit committees who want a watchdog that does more than tick controls. Each cycle is built around the audit committee's next agenda - what they need to ask, what management needs to fix, what the auditor will see when they return.
The audit committee deliverable.
Every cycle produces three things: a one-page executive summary, a structured findings register with quantified impact, and a presentation we walk the audit committee through. The report is short on purpose. Audit committees read short reports.
IFC testing - design and operating effectiveness.
For listed entities and companies in IFC scope, we run an annual IFC review covering risk-control matrices, design effectiveness walk-throughs, and operating-effectiveness testing on samples sized to the population. For companies that want controls watched every cycle rather than once a year, see Continuous Control Monitoring & IFC.
How we are different.
- Planning first. We invest disproportionate time upfront - risk universe, data extracts, calendar - before fieldwork begins.
- Field work executed, not performed. Walk-throughs first, then analytics on full populations (we rarely sample), then validation.
- Root cause over symptom. Every observation traces to a process gap, control failure or compliance miss - never just "it happened."
- Cumulative impact, measured. Direct recoveries identified across our engagements have crossed ₹5 Cr. Financial impact flagged is ₹15 Cr+.
What a quarterly cycle looks like.
Week 1: scoping call, data extracts, calendar. Weeks 2-3: fieldwork - walk-throughs and analytics. Week 4: validation, draft, management response, final report and audit-committee close-out. We hold a follow-up review at the next quarter to verify implementation.
