Okay here's the deal- ICAI App could do much more if they jus put sum thought in it.I didnt find it usefull much fr students.Yeah it saves your data consummption n da cell bt u could set chrome up in da same manner fr low data consumption.

There is still scope for improvement.

Yes, the points emphasised by Piyush ji are very valid and needs refinement from the Institute's side, so as to cater to the needs of all the stakeholders.

I think Institute has the capital, capacity, capability to revolutionise technology to reach every member of the fraternity, but unfortunately stops short of driving that extra mile. There are many professionals who would love to contribute in this technology frontier, but there appears to be lack of will some where, which is not yielding the desired results.
