13 April 2013 As per Rule 48(a)(iv) of Company Secretaries (Amendment) Regulation,
2001, a person having served as Assistant for more than 4 years in any
field like Finance, Accounts, Legal, Administrative or Secretarial
department under a State/Central Govt. with fixed assets of Rs.50L or
more can claim exemption from 15 months practical Training. Does the
definition of such an Assistant also include a “Personal Assistant”
under the Govt.? Please define “ASSISTANT” under the said Regulation
with special reference to the status of a “PERSONAL ASSISTANT’
attached with Top Executives under the Govt. and also clarify in clear
terms if such a Personal Assistant having practical experience for
more than 4 years under the Govt. would qualify for exemption from
Training? warm regards.
