As per a message given by President of ICAI Mr. Jaydeep Narender Shah, I seems manadatory to maintaining E-Diary, The procedure for maintaining the diary has not been mentioned in the message.

Here is part of President's Message on 28-04-2012 ,

Initiatives for Students

May 2012 CA Examinations: Students’ concerns have always been prime on my agenda. I would like to inform them that arrangements are being made for the May 2012 CA examinations at 135 centres across the country as well as at four centres abroad. Around 2,52,619 candidates, including 83,327 for Final, 1,44,032 for IPCE and 25,260 for PCE, have applied. Online Examination forms continue to attract a majority of students as 88% of them have submitted their forms online. Even 95% of students appearing for the Final opted for online. It is quite heartening and encouraging to witness the overwhelming response of students to our IT initiatives and green concerns in examinations. Besides, to prepare students for the exam, we recently organised mock tests through the Regional Councils and Branches.

GMCS Course: To equip entrants to the profession with some essential skills, it has now been decided that Articled Assistants joining Articled training on or after 1st May, 2012, shall have to undergo the GMCS Course twice during the period of training for 15 days each – once during 1st year of articled training and second during last one and a half years (i.e. between 19th and 36th month of Practical Training). Keeping in view the requirements of Indian Industry, the course content for the two phases of the GMCS Course has been comprehensively revised to make it more useful and informative.

National School-Level Debate Competitions: I am happy to inform that we will soon take initiatives to revive the national school-level debate competition by the Branches and Regional Councils in order to help students develop their oratory skills at young age. This initiative will also help create and enhance the brand image of the Institute. Display of ICAI trophies in academia as early as in schools will help generate curiosity and buzz about the accountancy profession among their students.

E-Diary in Articled Training: I am happy to inform our members as well as our students that we have approved the introduction of e-diary concept on all-India basis. To start with, it will be implemented from 1st May, 2012, on a recommendatory basis and, with effect from 1st July, 2012 it will be made mandatory for all.
