Section 44AB use the word "accountant" which, though not defined in the Act as such, finds reference in Form 3CA/3CB as "Chartered accountant within the meaning of the Chartered Accountants Act, 1949 (38 of 1949)"

Companies Act, 1956 (1 of 1956), entitled to be appointed to act as an auditor of companies registered in that State; or
