This query is : Resolved 

06 November 2008 Say "A" a partner of A & Co a chennai based CA firm has an independent branch at mumbai BC & Co (a partnership firm; A, B & C are partners). A's share is 60% and balance is shared by B&C equally. All the activities like operations, professional work etc of BC & Co are taken care of by B&C. If there is any professional misconduct because of B or C while performing duties on behalf of BC & Co what are its implications on A. Will A also be held responsible.

07 November 2008 If A is a partner of that firm, how can A plead ignorance? On what basis?
