Retrospective Restoration of CA Membership

With a view to mitigate the hardships being faced by members whose names stand removed
as on date due to non-payment of membership fee, the Council in its 374th meeting held in
March 2018 has decided to give an opportunity by way of Scheme for restoration of their
names retrospectively. By availing the scheme, the members will get benefit of the seniority
of membership which will be reckoned for the purpose of eligibility to fellow membership.

Continuation of membership entitles a member to designate himself as „CA‟ and also other
benefits like monthly Journal of the Institute , Newsletters of Regional Councils & Branches
of the Institute, participation in the conferences, seminars and other programmes organized
by the Institute, Regional Council and/or Branch; regular update on programs being
organized and initiatives taken for the benefit of the profession and members; emerging
professional opportunities, practice area development, publications of the Institute etc.
Further, there are new emerging professions such as Insolvency Profession for which
membership of the Professional Institute is a mandatory condition

This is an excellent opportunity to get name restored with retrospective effect. The benefit
of the scheme may be availed by submitting the prescribed application in Form 9 on or
before 31st March, 2018 in order to be eligible for inclusion of name in the List of Voters
as on 1st April 2018 for the election to the Council/Regional Council to be held in December
2018.

However, the retrospective restoration of membership scheme shall remain in force till 30th
April 2018. Members from whom Form 9 is received on or after 1st April 2018 but up till 30th
April 2018 will get the benefit of retrospective restoration of membership but will not be
eligible for inclusion of name in the List of Voters as on 1st April 2018 for the election to the
Council/Regional Council to be held in December 2018. Kindly note that the Certificate
of Practice will be granted from the prospective date only i.e. the date on which
Form 6 is received in the Regional office of the Institute.
