As per the ACFE (Association of Certified Fraud Examiners), companies across the globe lose 5% of their annual revenue due to fraud. Some of the common frauds of an organization are financial statement manipulation, procurement fraud, diversion of funds, and misuse of related-party transactions.
A major reason so much fraud remains undetected is that statutory audits are mainly designed to check whether financial statements are “true and fair,” not to actively investigate fraud or trace hidden irregularities.
Start InvestigationA forensic audit of a company, unlike a regular due diligence, is a detailed investigation of a company’s financial records to identify and detect potential fraud, misuse of funds, or financial wrongdoing before it becomes too late, affecting the company’s business operations. It mainly focuses on finding evidence of fraud and preparing reports that can be used in legal or regulatory cases against a company.
In India, forensic audit is conducted whenever a company is suspicious of fraud or detected during an investigation by banks or insolvency authorities like NCLT under IBC, or under various circumstances like when SEBI India orders a probe, or when a whistleblower complaint is filed under the Companies Act, or when investors (like in mergers or private equity deals) notice suspicious transactions during due diligence.

Start InvestigationAn independent forensic investigation helps protect leadership, recover lost assets, strengthen legal action, and improve long-term governance and trust.
It shows that the board has acted responsibly and diligently in detecting fraud. This demonstrates a fulfilment of fiduciary duties and safeguards directors from potential personal liabilities under section 166 of the Companies Act.
It also helps companies to detect and identify diverted funds and assets. These findings are also supported by legal actions like freezing bank accounts, securing attachment orders, and filing recovery suits against those responsible.
A company equipped with a forensic audit signals seriousness and transparency to regulators like SEBI and RBI. It becomes more favourable than an investigation initiated under regulatory pressure.
A forensic report provides important evidence required for initiating legal proceedings like FIRs, CBI investigations, and civil recovery cases. They help companies to establish the extent of fraud, quantify losses, and trace the flow of funds, strengthening the case.
Not only does it help to detect fraud, but forensic audits also highlight internal control gaps that allowed the issue to occur, and improve governance systems such as approval workflows, segregation of duties, and compliance checks to prevent future incidents.
It also reassures investors, PE funds, and lenders that the management of the company is handling the issues transparently. This overall helps the company to build trust and protect long-term relationships with institutional investors.
