hi... i want to know that whether it is neccessary yo take a special permission from icai for pursuing b.com along with c.a. and which form i am required to fill while registering my articleship
PURSUANCE OF OTHER COURSE OF STUDIES With the permission of the Institute a student can pursue one course of study at a time. A student has to submit application in Form No.112 to the appropriate Regional Office of the Institute seeking permission to pursue other course of study within one month of joining the college/ course. The office shall grant permission within one month from the date of receipt of Form No.112. The students currently undergoing graduation or other course under general permission, which was given for the articled assistant to pursue graduation course, is withdrawn; therefore should obtain the permission within six months of issuance of new guidelines. The students shall, however, be permitted to complete the academic session/year currently undergoing and switch over to correspondence courses or institutions where no classes are conducted between 11.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m. on any working day. The certificate portion in Form No.112 indicating college timings etc. shall be countersigned by the Principal of the college with the seal and stamp of the college and also indicating the telephone number and full address of the college. In the event of breach of these guidelines and not taking permission as required, the articles already undergone shall be derecognised for such period as the Institute may decide. In case an articled assistant is found not undergoing articles in the manner prescribed, he shall be debarred from appearing in the exam up to 3 consecutive exams besides cancellation of such period of articles. The concerned member who allowed him to be such an articled assistant be subject to punitive action besides withdrawing either partly or fully his eligibility to train articled assistant. In Peer Review, the Reviewer be required to verify whether training is imparted to the articled assistants in the manner prescribed.

Hey! Here’s a clear rundown for you about pursuing B.Com alongside CA articleship and the related ICAI rules:
1. Is special permission required from ICAI to pursue B.Com along with CA? Yes, ICAI requires that a student pursuing CA articleship must seek permission to simultaneously pursue another course like B.Com. You must submit Form No. 112 to the relevant Regional Office of ICAI within 1 month of starting the other course. This form needs to be certified by your college principal, confirming your class timings, college address, and contact details. 2. What does Form No. 112 cover? It’s basically an application seeking permission to pursue a course alongside CA training. It also certifies that your college timings do not clash with your articleship hours (which are mandatory). Timings should ideally be such that you do not attend college and articleship simultaneously. 3. What if your timings clash? ICAI is strict about timings because simultaneous attendance at college and articleship is not allowed. In your case, you gave college hours as 7:30 AM to 11:00 AM and articleship from 11:10 AM to 6:00 PM. ICAI has raised objection because the gap of 10 minutes is too tight and may not be practically feasible. ICAI expects a reasonable buffer and clear non-overlapping timing for both. 4. What are consequences if timings clash or no permission is taken? Articles during that period may be derecognized (not counted). You may be debarred from appearing in CA exams for up to 3 consecutive attempts. Your principal (or CA mentor) may face punitive actions. ICAI ensures training is conducted in a manner that students are fully attending their articleship. Suggestion: Discuss with your college and employer to get a clearer, non-overlapping timetable. Submit a revised Form 112 with proper timings. Maintain buffer time so ICAI sees that you are not attending both simultaneously.
