ICAI advises chartered accountants to file NFRA-2 for 2018-2019 and also for the year ending 31/03/2020 immediately to avoid penal consequences.

As per Rule 5 of NFRA Rules 2018, the auditors of specified class of companies are required to file an annual return with NFRA in the prescribed form (NFRA-2) on or before 30th November every year.

For the reporting period FY 2018-19, the Government had already allowed extension upto 4th September 2020.
