i dont know much. but i heard that if we give a valid reason we can take transfer at any time during the articleship period

After 1 year is completed any 1 can take transfer only if it falls within the permissible reasons for transfer as icai has mentioned as per CA Regulation act and also first you need to send a request to icai for the same and only after icai aproves then only you can apply for transfer in form 109.

Agree with Tushar

well i think ICAI will allow you transfer on the ground of shifting from Calcutta to Guhawati since one of the reason for transfer allowed after 1yr of completion of training is shifting from one city to another(they have some set KM range which in your case will be taken care of). & i yes u have to fill Form No: 109, it is an application addressed to the institute asking for transfer along with the specified reasons.. After that institute takes it course.

remember you should file Form 109 only after receiving approval from the institute..your current principal's current is also must when you apply..talk to your principal beforehand..the institute takes 6 to 8 weeks to reply..
