Executive Summary
The focus of this internship report is the job experience I gained while working as an
intern at KVMDS & ASSOCIATES in Pune from 13 June to 13 August 2023. In my
report, I've focused mostly on my experience at KVMDS & Associates, particularly
in accounts and audit-related tasks, and I've also included information on my two
months of employment there. I was given a variety of assignments throughout the
internship, including the preparation of journal entries, the analysis of financial data,
and the reconciliation of bank accounts. Aside from analyzing financial data and
evaluating internal controls, I also got the chance to take part in the development
and implementation of audit processes to detect possible risks. I also worked with
the rest of the team to summarise the audit's findings and suggestions for process
enhancements. In order to do this, I had to examine financial accounts, and provide
remedies to improve accuracy. Overall, the internship project for accounts and
auditing gave me practical experience in the field of accounting and auditing.
Passing Entries in Tally: I was given tasks to pass sales, purchases, expenses and
other journal entries of clients in tally. This helped me to understand different
types of voucher in tally.
Assisting in Sample checking: Under the guidance of senior article, I learnt about
sample checking of GST invoices, purchase invoices and expenditure invoices.

transactions, preparing and analysing financial statements, and understanding
financial data. Additionally, it will cover auditing processes including risk
assessment, internal control assessment, and the audit report. The study will
examine the various audit types, such as internal audits performed by the
organization's own workers and external audits carried out by independent
auditors. It will emphasise the goals of auditing, which comprise assuring accuracy
and completeness of financial data, looking for fraud and mistakes, and assessing
the efficiency of internal controls.

CHAPTER 2: Literature Review
The evolution of Indian accounting standards : This research paper examines how
taxation, bribery, and inspections interact, focusing on Vietnam in particular. It investigates if
bribes have any effect on inspections and whether they are effective anti-corruption measures.
The study provides evidence in favour of the latter hypothesis, showing that bribes may be used
to influence inspections. The paper uses an analysis of a firm-level dataset to reveal the complex
relationship between bribery, inspections, and tax implications. It demonstrates that bribery
directly reduces a firm's tax and fee obligations while also having an additional 6% impact
through reduced inspections. This study makes a contribution by outlining the causal chain and
illuminating the broader dynamics of corruption in this situation. ( P.Bidisha Lahiri, Haider Ali-
2022)
15
Fraud detection and forensic accounting in India : Due to a rapid increase in corporate
fraud, forensic accounting and financial investigation have become increasingly important. These
scams have caused significant financial harm to people, companies, and governments. The
purpose of this study is to investigate how forensic accounting methods might deter and detect
such frauds. It explores fraud's root causes, fraudster psychology, red flags, and strategies for
fraud detection and prevention. The study assesses the use of forensic data analysis technologies
and how widely they are used by accountants. It also evaluates the training needs, educational
requirements, and career possibilities for the field. Finally, a case study uses cutting-edge
forensic methods to look into possible bookkeeping irregularities in significant Indian cement
corporations.(A.Bansal-2017)
Audit & Research: The link between research and audit in the healthcare industry is
covered in the article. It emphasises the idea that while audit makes sure the selected course of
action is carried out properly, research looks for the best route of action. The differences include
the fact that whereas audit is continual, less regulated, and utilises regular data, research is one-
time, controlled, and collects complicated data. Both demand an investigative mindset but
frequently lack sound methodologies, particularly in audit. Clinical leadership is essential for an
efficient audit, which places a focus on quality enhancement. Although audit procedures may be
improved, advantages are continually being demonstrated. In healthcare, the article promotes
tighter coordination between research and audit at all levels. (Richard Smith-1992)
16
Corporate Governance in India: The efficiency of corporate governance indices, which
summarise different facets of a company's governance into a single grade, is examined in this
article. Institutional investors are sold on using these indexes to make portfolio and proxy voting
choices. The research reveals methodological shortcomings in studies connecting governance
metrics to company success. The main conclusion is that there is no consistent relationship
between corporate success and governance indices; instead, the best governance structure will
vary depending on the environment and the particulars of each organization. As a result,
governance indexes are seen as inadequate instruments for casting votes or choosing
investments. Given the erratic link between indices and performance, the paper promotes
flexible governance strategies instead of strict mandates.( S.Bhagat,B.Bolton,R.Romano-2008)

Chapter 3: RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.1: Hypothesis
The integration of advanced accounting software and technology can improve financial accuracy,
efficiency in reporting, and decision-making capabilities within organizations. This hypothesis
suggests that modern accounting software and technology can lead to positive outcomes in
financial accuracy, reporting efficiency, and informed decision-making. Further empirical research
and data analysis can further explore this hypothesis.
3.2: Methodology
In particular for accounting and finance students who are new to research, the book's main goal
is to offer advice and insights into the process. It covers everything from choosing a research
topic to completing the final study, with the goal of streamlining the research process. The book's

Chapter 4: DATA ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION
I gained practical application of accounting and the intersection of accounting and law
throughout my time working at the Chartered Accountant business. I gained knowledge about
how various ideas are applied in the real world and how various transactions are done by various
sorts of organisations via the reading of books from various organisations.
The work done with Chartered Accountants has expanded after the implementation of GST.
Prior to the implementation of GST, a taxpayer was only had to submit a single return at the end
of each quarter. Now, however, some taxpayers are required to submit three returns each month
and others only one. Since the advent of GST has increased their burden, each taxpayer utilises a
CA to manage their filings of Returns.
Primary data:
This study was created using a significant amount of original data. The following approach is used
to gather primary data from a group of people that are connected to this firm. In specifically for
research, primary data is information that is gathered for the first time from personal
experiences or evidence. It can also be referred to as raw data or first-hand knowledge. The
method of gathering the data is expensive since it requires the use of human resources and
money to have an agency or outside organisation do the study. Direct supervision and
management of the data gathering process is done by the investigator.
The majority of the information is gathered by observations, physical examinations, surveys,
mail-in questionnaires, telephone interviews, case studies, focus groups, etc.
Secondary data:
Secondary data is second-hand information collected from various sources such as company
manuals, reports, and records. It is accessible and affordable, saving time and cost. However, it
may not meet the current research purpose or be accurate.
Qualitative research, on the other hand, describes qualities or characteristics and is collected
through questionnaires, interviews, or observation. It often appears in narrative form, such as
notes from a focus group or responses from an open-ended questionnaire. Although qualitative
data may be difficult to measure and analyze, it can be analyzed through coding. Coding helps
researchers categorize qualitative data, identify themes that correspond with the research
questions, and perform quantitative analysis. Overall, both qualitative and quantitative research
methods have their advantages and disadvantages, but they are essential for understanding a
company's strengths and weaknesses.

4.3: Interpretation
The process of interpreting analysed data entails coming to conclusions and making conclusions
that make sense in relation to the statistical findings from the analysis of the data. Following are
some basic guidelines for interpreting analysed data:
Review the descriptive stats: Descriptive statistics like mean, median, mode, and standard
deviation are used to summarise the data. Reviewing these statistics could help you spot patterns
and trends in the data.
Analysing the research question: Before analysing the findings, it is essential to comprehend
the research topic or hypothesis that is being looked at. With this information, it will be simpler
to analyse the statistical results and draw trustworthy conclusions.
Offering the outcomes: To effectively convey the results to the target audience and assist the
interpretation, use the appropriate visual aids, such as graphs and charts.
Examine those Results: By employing sensitivity analysis and other techniques to check the
results, confirm the analysis's robustness.

Chapter 5: Summary and Conclusion
5.1: Recommendation
The following suggestions are highly recommended to increase the efficacy and efficiency of the
accounting and auditing procedures in light of my experience and observations from my accounts
and audit internship project:
1. Build a risk-based auditing method: A risk-based auditing approach ensures that the audits are
focused on the areas with the highest potential for significant error. This can be accomplished by
performing a thorough risk analysis during the planning stage and allocating audit resources
appropriately.
2. Put automation tools into use: The use of automation techniques, like as accounting software
and data analytics, can considerably streamline the accounting and auditing processes.
3. Strengthening internal controls: Strengthening internal controls is crucial to lowering the risk
of fraud and mistakes. Internal control systems should be reviewed often to identify any
vulnerability and put the appropriate corrective actions in place.
4. Encourage constructive communication and teamwork: Effective coordination and
communication between the many departments within the company are essential for the
accounting and auditing procedures to run smoothly.
5.2: Conclusion
We will assist our clients in complying with areas of charity and business financial reporting and
taxation using our in-depth knowledge of the law and regulations. The client will be expecting us
to always get things properly. Where we lack expertise or knowledge, we will collaborate with
other like-minded specialists to offer counsel and direction to our clients. We promise to always
keep in mind our obligation to maintain professional privacy and independence.
