while going thre faq's I found this..

34. Is it alright if the print out of the on-line form is attested by any member of the Institute or should it be attested by my Principal only? Your photo and signature and data on the on-line form submitted by you has to be attested by a member of the Institute or your Principal in the case of Final candidates. However in the case of Intermediate (IPC) Exam candidates, it may be got attested by a Gazetted Officer also.
