01 October 2019 Hello Experts,

We received a certificate from a chartered accountant. Thorugh the certificate is signed by the chartered accountant, the annexures of the certificates (5 annexures) are not signed by the CA (but his firm's stamp/seal is affixed in the annexures). When we asked he replied, it is a common practice to sign only the certificate and the annexures need not be signed.

Is this a common practice or should we insist his signature in the annexues too? It is an important certificate to be submitted to government.
