Sir I am working in a charitable trust doing various activities for poor relief. Iam an accounts Manager in Corporate office of the charitable trust since last 2years. Having a turnover of 1.5cr. Wheather I am eligible for article exemption for Icwai. Pl give the answer wheather eligible or not.

i have seen a CA who has signed the balance sheet without taking care of following deficiency and the fact is the organisation of which balance sheet is signed is running for 30 years...then what is the use of taking pain to follow the norms of revised schedule vi or companies act 13...

1. Secondary & higher education cess of excise duty is written as service tax in balance sheet.
2.Contingent liability is shown in the balance sheet.
3.Negative value of asset is shown in the fixed asset schedule..and this is done in the current financial year when schedule II was brought.
4.Profit from discontinuing operation is shown in the balance sheet while there is no discontinuing operation.(AS-24 voilation)
5.Trade payables includes sundry creditors as well as current liabilities.(Schedule III violation


Please tell me after seeing above mistakes dont you think that there is no need of following any rule....we can commit any mistake and if it is gets signed by a CA no harm to our business it can long survive...

Our ICAI should take pain to punish such CA this is the only reason that CAs just for the sake of money sign any balance sheet and deserving candidates are denied by the industries.....because they have no fear of being caught......shame on icai

Hi Friends,

I have qualify my CA in May 2015, i had taken my article ship from a proprietorship firm where i handle filing of returns of small companies and tax audit.
I want to learn statutory and internal audits.
But i don't have link with ca firms where i can learn all these things.
Whenever I contact them
they ask for prior experience in internal and statutory audits, which i don't have.

Please suggest friends how can learn all these.

Hi All, I am currently working as a Tax Analyst in one of the big four. I want to study CA, but I won't be able to do articleship as I am one only bread finder to my family and we all know what is the stipend we get in articleship. Will my work experience be considered as articleship? Is there any alternative for me to pursue CA? I know articleship is very crucial to CA, given my situation it would be great to know if there are any alternative.

I have completed my articleship. My form108 is duly signed by my principal and my online completion letter is also available. Now my principal warns to work under him as article.. Saying otherwise I complained to Institute that her a.ship is not completed...can any one say can my principle have right to do so??
Institute cancel completion of a.ship status after that???
Please help me

I am a student of CA-IPCC. I have also planned to persue CS-Executive along with CA-IPCC. I am also thinking of doing LLB after my CA.

I have a few queries regarding my choice of courses:


a) Is CA+CS a favourable combination in reference to job prospects?

b) What would my job profile be as a CA+CS?

c) What is the job profile of a CS+LLB?

d) CA+LLB is good and so is CS+LLB. So, will doing CA+CS+LLB be a good option?

e) What job would I get as a CA+CA+LLB?

f) How good is CA+CS+LLB for practice?

g) How much will my salary differ if I do only CA compared to CA+CS compared to CA+CS+LLB?

h) Should I do CA+CS+LLB or CA+CS+CIMA considering that I would like to work on the international scale or go to Australia?

i) What job will I get if I do CA+CS+CIMA? How much will my salary differ if I do CA+CS+LLB compared to CA+CS+CIMA on the international scale?

I am 28 years old with around 10 years experience in the field of accounting and auditing. I have a desire to pursue C.A but am only worried about the stipend paid by the C.A firms is quite less. Can anyone suggest C.A firms offering higher stipends to the candidates with experience.
