12 March 2009 Dear All:

I am a practicing CA having sole proprietorship in my name. I want to become a sole proprietor of "XYZ Financial Services" which will accept the outsourced accounting work from outside INDIA say UK. Being a practicing CA, can I become sole proprietor under two different trade names.

16 March 2009 Thanks to both of you for the answers.
What is the alternate for the same??

Can I accept the work in the name of my Husband. Means he will be the proprietor of XYZ Financial Services, and I will do the work of accounting??? Is it possible??

Will the service tax be levied on such export of services??
