Audit regulator National Financial Reporting Authority (NFRA) has said that Deloitte Haskins and Sells LLP's appointment as statutory auditor of IL&FS Financial Services Ltd (IFIN) for FY18 was illegal for breaching the ban on hiring firms with direct or indirect business relationships for audit. A spokesperson for Deloitte India said they have contested the findings, adding that the firm has been cooperating with NFRA and that it will look into the order. The regulator said in a supplementary audit quality review report on 7 December that Deloitte was not eligible to be appointed as auditor due to a violation of Companies Act provisions barring certain persons as auditors. The provisions disallow those with "subsisting business relationships" or who offer certain non-audit services directly or indirectly to the company or its associates
