As per Clause (5) of the ‘Permission granted generally’ of Appendix 9 of the Chartered Accountants, 1988, a chartered accountant in practice is permitted to attend classes for any examination.
.
Also as per the Ethical Standards Board of ICAI,

"Doing internship for company secretary by a CA in practice is akin to attending classes, which is in turn, is covered under Clause (5) of the ‘Permission granted generally’ of Appendix 9 of the Chartered Accountants, 1988, and as such, the same is permissible."

Thanx a lot!
