Dear Bhavik,

yes, sole practitioner can do all tasks which a sole proprietor can.

Even i am having COP, but not yet registered as sole proprietor and still i am signing all the documents (without FRN)

Best Regards,

Dear Bhavik,

you may write For Bhavik Shah... and then all other things... no problem in writing For...

and also arrange Stamp on your sole practitioner name.... to affix on Audit Report etc.

Hello Mr. Bhavik, I am planning to practice in my own name. Hence didnt apply for FRN. But when i am trying to file ITR 6, as my client is liable for Tax audit u/s 44AB, when i select "Yes" under 'AUDIT DETAILS', it is asking for "Proprietorship/firm registration number". Can you guide me what i need to do here?
