Regarding Change in Signature before applying for membership
You can definitely change your signature now, but you should treat it as a formal "rebranding" of your identity. To avoid future hurdles, follow this sequence:
Draft a Notarized Affidavit for the signature change.
Submit the new signature to ICAI with the required attestation (if it differs from articleship records).
Update your Bank Specimen and PAN Card (if possible) to ensure your professional and financial identities match.
