IFC/ICFR in India

- Effectiveness Testing: Verify that the IFC and ICFR are operating as intended and offering a fair level of assurance regarding the correctness and dependability of financial statements by testing their design and operational effectiveness. Determine and fix any flaws or shortcomings in the control system.
