The ban on Haribhakti &amp; Co LLP is amongst the first few under the RBI’s enforcement action framework for statutory auditors, <a href="https://www.rbi.org.in/Scripts/BS_PressReleaseDisplay.aspx?prid=44357">announced in June 2018</a>, which has provisions to debar audit firms which have “serious” lapses in their audits of banks. The central bank’s release underlines that the auditors in question have not complied with a specific direction under this framework. According to the press release, Haribhakti &amp; Co LLP will not be allowed to audit any entity that is regulated by the RBI. This ban comes into effect from April, 2022 and will be in force for two years. The auditors will be allowed to complete their existing audit assignments in the financial year 2021-22. In this case, RBI has not specified the “systemically-important” NBFC. As of 2019, there were 275 such entities and the list includes the likes of Bajaj Finance and Bajaj Finserv, Shriram Transport Finance, Power Finance Corporation, among others. Some of the companies that have been audited by Haribhakti &amp; Co LLP include Birla Sunlife AMC, Axis Bank, IndusInd Bank and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/finance/news/rbi-has-taken-two-srei-companies-out-of-board-control-after-payment-defaults/articleshow/86754390.cms">SREI</a> Infrastructure Finance as well as SREI Equipment Leasing. <div type="Video" msid="86962810" hostid="261" title="The vicious circle behind bad loans.

Earlier, it had banned SR Batliboi &amp; Co., one of the top auditors in the country and a partner of global audit firm Ernst &amp; Young (EY), for lapses in its statutory audit of banks. <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/companies/rbi-bars-ey-group-s-batliboi-from-auditing-bank-books-for-one-year-119060301662_1.html">Reports</a> at the time suggested the banks were Yes Bank and Axis Bank, and the lapse was in not correctly identifying the non-performing assets of the banks to the tune of over ₹13,500 crore.
