is the event after the signing/approval of accounts?
if before the accounts....then u have to just see how big/material the branch is keeping in view the current materiality...and give a disclosure

if after the accounts, and the event very very material........then u can speak at the AGM

Dear Noman bhai,

is it the responsblity of auditor for such material in above case, if the accounts hv been signed??

[noman]

yes....it is not his responsiblity (in accordance with terms of engagement) per se....its his duty as a professional (including due to public interest) that he ensures that management communicates this matter to its shareholders (in case there is no time to revise the accounts) and if management does not communicate he should speak at the AGM to communicate this to the shareholders..(after seeking legal opinion..not sure)
