| Dear Mr. Pawan
As said my Learned friends, this is right the appointment can only be made as per provisions of section 224(6) by general body meeting only.
In such a case first you need to take take resignation from retiring Auditor then call a EGM then pass a Ordinary Resolution for the Appointment of new Auditors in place of retiring auditors (who resigned).
Any auditor apppointed in a casual vacancy shall hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting.
If you need the Resolution or format of notice then let me know
