Whether the Concurrent Auditor should refuse to sign LFAR and Tax Audit Report?

FAQ (refer link below) brought in by Ethical Standard Board of ICAI clearly states that internal auditor cannot perform statutory audit function irrespective of amount.
LFAR and Tax Audit are statutory report prescribed by the statue and hence Internal Auditor cannot do that.
