The Council has decided that all the members must mention the UDIN number immediately after the ICAI’s membership number while signing various audit reports. This will help the Council to bring uniformity in the manner according to which the members of ICAI sign audit reports.

The requirement to sign audit reports along with the UDIN number is added to the other requirements pertaining to auditor’s signature mentioned under the relevant law or regulation, and the Standards on Auditing.

The requirement of mentioning UDIN number will come into effect from 1st July 2019.
