Hi all.. I have completed my first year of articleship a few days ago but i am still confused about the direction in which my articleship is headed. I have joined a small firm in jaipur which is mostly a taxation oriented firm having a client base of partnerships and proprietorships mainly. I have learnt a few things like :- 1.accounts maintenance in tally 2.preparation of vat returns 3.stocks audits 4.accounts finalisation and tax audits(though basics only) 5.preparation of audit reports inc. Form 3ca, 3cd 6.preparation of form 20b,23ac,23aca etc. 7.a small statutory audit of a hospital
I expect to learn the same along with service tax returns, more stock audits, better experience in tax audits, income tax returns in next 2 years. Can somebody please guide me whether my articleship is headed in correct decision or not as there wont be much experience in audits. Though i get more than enough time for studies but i am in doubt that my limited experience in this firm will be obstacle in a good job placement.
