Sorry fellow professionals the earlier email got sent wrongly without my query.

Today one lady claiming to be inspector of shops and establishment deptt came to our office and demanded to verify the trade licence.

when I explained that trade license is the domain of kmc and further that c.a. firms are exempt from shops and establishment act,she said that there is amendment in the act and now c.a. firms are also required to register under shops and establishment act.

after much heated argument she has given a notice in writing.

i need enlightenment from institute and fellow professional on this episode and relevant circulars,case law if any.

Dear poojaji,
it is unfortunate that no one responded on such a vital issue giving rise to the suspicion that even chairman or other office bearers of eirc are not clear or do not want to help.

i had a discussion with earlier central council member shri sumantra Guha who was knowing the subject and he said that there is a Calcutta H.C.Decision.
however ,on requesting him to give citation or name of the case he too could not help.

Luckily i was flipping through the May 2016 journal wherein at page no18 under the caption:"know your Ethics"
there is question :whether a c.a. in practice is required to obtain trade license for practicing?
they have answered as under:
"No.a c.a. in practice is not required to obtain any trade licence for practicing as a professional.The cert. of practice issued by ICAIis only requirement to practice as a c.a."

as a corollary there should not be any need of regn. under shops and establishment Act.

however, to deal with these inspector raj we need to have some authoritative document.

Dear All,
              Please read the definition of "Commercial establishment" in page no. 2 in the Act attached herewith which includes the profession of accountant. Please also read in "CA Ethics Plus" issued by our Institute in page no. 1, question no. 3, we are not require to obtain any trade licence for practicing as a professional. I think, our Council members should see the matter and discuss with the concerned Dept., if require, to solve the problem.

Many thanks khemkaji for you kind response.
However, that case is a decision of Bombay h.c.and local west bengal authorities will be reluctant to apply it.
we may have to approach appropriate court here if pressurised .
