09 November 2011 I would like to know when I have taken a Certificate of Practice in 2010 - Can I sign the Balance Sheet of FY 2009 or before.

Presently Amnesty scheme is underway where last 6 years Balance Sheet can be signed. Can I sign the Balance Sheets of last six years under that scheme or I need to certify the B/s from an existing CA who has a COP since 2004 onwards.

10 November 2011 As per the provisions of the Act an Auditor who has necessary qualification under the ICAI Act, 1949 CAN SIGN THE BALANCE SHEET. You will have find an Auditor who had the signing authority (COP) on the date of Balance Sheet. If you date all the Balance Sheet at a Present date the Company would land in immense trouble and if you sign at a back date today you will get into trouble.

Give clarification if required
