Professional misconduct - Auditor's conflict of interest with the auditee company - In this case the audit done by the EP related to SKNL which was a large public listed company and involved interest of large number of shareholders and other stake holders such as banks, creditors etc. It is critical that the auditor and the EP performed their job with due diligence to give assurance to the investors and stakeholders on true and fairness of the financial statements and thereby protect public interest. Any default on this account impacts and jeopardizes the larger public interest which needs to be considered while determining the quantum of punishment. - NFRA
