Abstract

The Delhi High Court’s judgment in Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP v. Union of India 2023 is a landmark decision that sharply defines the obligations and liabilities of audit firms and their partners under Indian law. This essay examines the context, legal arguments, judicial reasoning, and the broader implications of the judgment, focusing particularly on the legal and policy landscape surrounding vicarious liability for auditors.
