Hello friends, I have completed my 8 months of articleship altogether. At my present office, I have spend about 2 months and now I want transfer from the firm because of the bad behaviour of the boss and the abusive language used by him while talking.
But as I asked him for giving me transfer, he said that he hadn't given any transfer within his 35 years of practise, so its his theory of not giving transfer to any article. Once anyone has been admitted, he will remain there till the completion of his tenure.
So I request you to pls help me out on this issue. What can I do on a safer side to get transfer from this firm.
Pls help me out.

An articled assistant is entilted to take a transfer within the first year of articleship without assigning any reason and ICAI allows any number of transfers in the first year without the permission of ICAI. The member/firm where you are serving cannot refuse to give you a transfer. I am not aware about who is at fault or whose behaviour is not correct but transfer cannot be refused. Do not hesitate to write to ICAI if immediately if you do not get the transfer. You do not have anything to worry about.
