Notably, the government had made it mandatory for every company to keep audit trail features in the accounting software of their books. If any company’s accounting entry is changed, then the information about that change will be present in new features of the software ‘audit trail’.
The Companies had to make arrangements for the same. The audit trail was not closed from the accounting software and it would be made available on demand.
