Dear Babit Khurana,

CA holding full time COP, can not work as a paid assisstant.

The member desirous of surrendering his certificate of practice should make a request in writing indicating the date from which he wishes to surrender COP. The original scriptt for certificate of practice should be surrendered for cancellation The COP fee however will have to be paid for the relevant financial year before it is cancelled at his request. However no fee would be required to be paid if he wishes to surrender his COP w.e.f. 1st April provided he makes the request with the original COP by 30th April of that year.

However, an application for permission of part time employment can be made in the prescribed form available at the ICAI website in the "Members" menu and accordingly hold a part- time COP.

Regards,

Can someone please tell me if a partner of a firm has surrendered his Certificate of Practice (COP), so can the other partner sign on the audit report of the company on his behalf considering the fact that the appointment letter is made in the name of the first partner who has surrendered his COP.
