The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India is adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to modernize auditing processes, enhancing efficiency and effectiveness in financial oversight. This initiative aligns with India’s vision of becoming a $30-trillion economy by 2047 and supports the broader governmental push for AI integration in governance. At the World Forum of Accountants, hosted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), the significance of digital transformation in accounting and auditing was emphasized, especially as businesses expand into emerging sectors. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has also encouraged cost auditors to use AI for improved risk assessment, financial analysis, and identifying inefficiencies. By embracing AI and ML, the CAG aims to set a benchmark for institutions, driving digital transformation and strengthening India’s financial governance to support its ambitious economic goals.
