&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can&#039;t audit private companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court&#039;s decision.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those &amp;quot;in relation to accounts of the Union.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been &amp;quot;pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case.
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can&#039;t audit private companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court&#039;s decision.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those &amp;quot;in relation to accounts of the Union.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been &amp;quot;pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case.

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can&#039;t audit private companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court&#039;s decision.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those &amp;quot;in relation to accounts of the Union.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been &amp;quot;pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case.

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can&#039;t audit private companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court&#039;s decision.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those &amp;quot;in relation to accounts of the Union.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been &amp;quot;pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained.&amp;quot;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case.
&lt;/p&gt;

<em>NEW DELHI: </em>The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies.
</p>
<p align="justify">
CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.
</p>
<p align="justify">
A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. 
</p>
<p align="justify">
It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010.
</p>
<p align="justify">
Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can't audit private companies.
</p>
<p align="justify">
To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies.
</p>
<p align="justify">
Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court's decision.
</p>
<p align="justify">
The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those &quot;in relation to accounts of the Union.&quot;
</p>
<p align="justify">
CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been &quot;pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained.&quot;
</p>
<p align="justify">
In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party.
</p>
<p align="justify">
The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case.

CAG gets HC nod to audit accounts of private telecom companies

-The Times of India NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Monday gave nod to the comptroller and auditor general (CAG) to audit the accounts of private telecom companies. CAG got the crucial assignment after getting the mandate to audit power distribution companies from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government. A bench of justices Pradeep Nandrajog and V Kameswar Rao permitted the top accounting body to conduct audit of private telecom companies under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act. It rejected the separate petitions of Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers (AUSPI) and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) filed against the decision of Telecom tribunal TDSAT on the issue in 2010. Both the associations had argued, in essence, that CAG can't audit private companies. To achieve the purpose of audit, the operators had pointed out that they have already put in place mechanism of special audit as envisaged in the license agreement between department of telecom and the companies. Significant revenues could accrue to the government following the high court's decision. The CAG has vigorously staked its claim to audit the accounts and sought revenue sharing details from the telecom companies. In lengthy written submissions CAG has cited the Constitution of India and the CAG Act 1971 to contend that it is duty bound to audit accounts of the Union and those "in relation to accounts of the Union." CAG has said it has full powers to audit accounts of the telecom firms to ensure that claims to receipts have been "pursued with due diligence by Union and no loss occurred due to fraud and efficiency and effectiveness of the transactions has been maintained." In June 2010, in an interim order, the HC had directed private telecom operators to submit their account books to CAG national auditor so as to enable it to determine if there was any underreporting of licence fees by the companies. But HC restrained CAG from demanding any additional documents except revenue-sharing details and had further directed it to not disclose the same information to the public or to any third party. The order was later modified by SC which directed the firms to furnish their financials to CAG, but stopped the auditor from vetting the papers till HC decides the case. (With inputs from PTI)
