I want to know that lic,icsi, icai are state. I know that they are statutory body under the act of parliament.
LIC means Life Insurance Corporation
ICSI indicate Institute of Company Secretaries of India and
ICAI indicate Institute of Chartered Accountant of India
All the above are statutory body under the act of Parliament and governed by their own Act.
