and from April 2011 till date i am working in a chemical industry.
As per the new norms can i apply for FCA membership after march 2015 as then i would complete 5 years after qualification.

17 December 2014 no as u need to be in service as a paid assistant for min of 5 years then only u can apply for FCA

17 December 2014 An associate member will be admitted as a fellow member if he satisfies the following conditions:


He has been an associate member for a continuous period of not less than 5 years and
is ordinarily holding or has held for a continuous period of not less than 5 years any one or more posts carrying duties relating to accounts, cost accounts, audit, finance, taxation, company law and /or secretarial work in :

A member either partly in practice and partly in service, holding one or more posts mentioned above is also eligible for admission as fellow provided the total period of practice and/or service shall be continuous and be not less than 5 years.

You are eligible to apply in May 2015.


17 December 2014 Seems you are not eligible, since multiple employment with in the 5 years period is not mentioned in the ICAI councils 283rd meeting decision.
