Hi Jhonny,

 

In My Opinion - In case of member in practice, practicing individually, MEMBERSHIP NO. is required. And, in case of firm, FRN is required.

 

If member has his individual practice, then he need not apply for FRN. In this case, if he is signing any report, then he has to mention HIS membership no. only, question of FRN doesn't arise.

 

Other friends ... kindly rectify me if Im wrong.
