If you cancel your articleship registration due to personal reasons after completing two years, here are the general implications and steps you should consider:
1. **Re-registration for Articleship:** - After cancelling your articleship registration, you can re-register for articleship after a cooling-off period. - The exact duration of the cooling-off period may vary based on the regulations at that time. Typically, it ranges from 1 to 3 years. - You will need to check the current guidelines from ICAI (Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) regarding re-registration timelines.
2. **Completing Remaining Articleship Period:** - When you re-register for articleship, you can continue from where you left off. For instance, if you had completed two years before cancellation, you would resume the remaining one year. - It's crucial to ensure that the total duration of articleship does not exceed the prescribed maximum period, which is typically three years. If you exceed this, you may face implications on your eligibility for CA final exams.
3. **Viewing CA Exam Results:** - Yes, you can view your CA exam results even after cancelling your articleship registration. Cancelling articleship registration does not affect your ability to access or view exam results. - Results are generally accessible through the ICAI portal or other specified channels, depending on the exam cycle.
4. **Procedure for Cancelling Articleship:** - To cancel your articleship registration, you need to submit a request to your principal with valid reasons. - The principal will then initiate the cancellation process with ICAI, which involves formalities such as filling out the necessary forms and submitting relevant documents.
5. **Consult with ICAI or a Professional:** - It's advisable to consult with ICAI directly or seek guidance from a professional (such as a company secretary or a practicing CA) who can provide specific advice based on your circumstances and the latest regulations.
By following these steps and ensuring compliance with ICAI guidelines, you can navigate the process of cancelling and potentially re-registering for articleship smoothly.
