Dummy articleship...........?

Plz clarify under which regulation of ICAI act it is given that we cannot do articleship under our relatives....specially parents.

Pawan ......can you plz forward me the link??

Pawan sir, only if you are 100 % sure of a particular provision, you ought to state the facts. You cannot hoodwink people to say, I heard someone saying, it is completely unacceptable to make such fallacies. Kindly proivide right guidance to people if you completely know the fact else restrain from uttering something which is incorrect.

Initially you commented :

"Ragini...employer sections padho ek baar"

Later you post:

"Icai site me hai........! if im wrong correct me bcoz a CA has told me....!.!"


 

@ Satish M...You rule boss...Saved me a few words.

@ others : Actually at least at the time I registered myself for the articleship, there was no information on this topic. I read the CA act, two times and I could not find it. I also searched for such guideline by insitute and I found none. Then I asked a board member and he suggested, that there was no such restriction even in his knowledge.

In fact I myself got registered with my father's firm.

@ To people who wants to know how you feel at the end of the tunnel:

Pros:

1.I was able to work for my father who needed my assistance and I actually was working with him from 10th vacation onwards, so joining any other office felt like cheating.

2.I did not feel guilty that I was working for peanuts, the feeling I would have had, had I actually joined any other firm.

3.My father initially was aggressive with me and did not allow me to handle any single work completely but that changed later and I infact got better exposure with what all types of work we had.

Cons:

1.I always felt guilty that I am not struggling as others were, since being a father my principal could not be that hard on me unless it was floods of work.. Also we did not have any bank audit or too many co-operative audits which I would have like to gain more exposure in.

2.The biggest problem but was exposure to new opportunities or new types of work for which I would had to leave my city which was unacceptable to my parents.

3.I was not paid a single rupee during my articleship period effectively since my expenses were completely controlled by my father so rs.1500 cheque was just a formality for me.

4.I had to work according to his hours which were normally upto 3 am daily, all sundays and during audit months only 4 hours sleep, but then I guess most of us had to do it.

5.I was always promised that I will get many full days for my own studies, but I never saw one actually.

Well Thank you Pawan for realising that we need to be circumspect before we air our views. I urge others too follow suit in future when providing your valuable suggestion / opinion.
