Dear All,
It is a fact that the Companies Act, 2013 passed by the Parliament with assent of the President of India dated 29th August, 2013, will not be applicable for November 2013 examination.
As far as applicability of Companies Act, 2013 for May 2014 examination is concerned, the same will be notified by ICAI, once the date of enforcement of the provisions of the Act is notified.
November 2013 examination:
As per my opinion all the students are advised to prepare the following even for November 2013 examination:
- Short note on the Companies Act, 2013.
- Implications and need for the introduction of Companies Act, 2013.
- At least 10 points of difference between Companies Act, 2013 and Companies Act, 1956.
- Corporate reforms eyed through the introduction of Companies Act, 2013.
- Quick reading of 98 sections of Companies Act, 2013 notified by the Ministry of Corporate affairs (MCA).
I hope the above advice would be of some help. It is always better to start now rather than wait for the notification of ICAI. Keeping in view the speed of MCA, regarding Companies Act, 2013, I am quite sure that entire Act will be applicable for May 2014 CA attempt.
You are requested to share your opinion in this regard.
Thanks
