Transfer of Articles

Ramu Kannan (Service) (24 Points)

My son completed 2 years articles with a firm in Chennai. He is not at all happy with the work allocation, atmosphere, environment and the treatment by the partner(Very senior person-age above 75) who at times shouts, ask the trainees to get out of his room, throws the paper on their faces etc. My son could not withstand this and probably he is on the verge of breaking down and quitting. I frequently advise him to maintain his calm since the partner of the firm is a very senior person.

Is there any possibility to change the articles to another firm in Chennai only without complaining about the firm/partner as a reason for transfer?

Kindly enlighten me with the relevent provision of the institute regarding change of articles within the same city

Thanks in advance

Ramu

DEAR RAMU

IT IS A VERY HARD DECISION TAKEN BY INSTITUTE REGARDING TO TRANSFER OF ARTICLESHIP.

YOUR SON CAN TAKE TRANSFER ONLY IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:

1) HIS WORKING PARENTS HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED FROM CHENNAI TO SOMEWHERE ELSE. THE CITY IN WHICH HE IS TRANSFERRED HAVING DISTANCE MORE THEN 50 KMS.

2) IF HE CONVERTS PCC IN TO IPCC

JUST KEEP IN MIND THAT NO APPLICATION WILL BE CONSIDERED IN CASE OF REMAINING TIME IS 6 MONTH IN COMPLETION OF ARTICLESHIP.

IT WILL BE BETTER TO COMPROMISE WITH THE SITUATION

I AM TOO SUFFERING WITH THIS SITUATION.

THANKS

WITH WARM REGARDS

Mr. Ramu....... I can only say is that wait till new president assumes the office of ICAI ( the only hope). Before that it is very difficult to find solution to ur problem becoz these days CA's r misbehaving having given enormous power to them.I pray that the new President must abolish this "NO TRANSFER RULE".

FRIENDS KISI KI REALITY PATA KARNI HO TO OSE POWER DE DO.......... REALITY PATA CHAL JAYEGI. I THINK NO TRANSFER RULE IMPLEMENTED BY EXHISTING PRESIDENT IS WITH THE VIEW TO KNOW THE REALITY OF OLD CA. SO WAIT N WATCH WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN FUTURE. tHANKS.

(Guest)

Ramu Sir...... This is a severe problem. Transfer rules have been made very rigid. What ur son can do is be calm, quitting is not a good idea. Hope the new President bring some relief to all suffering articled assisstants.

Dear sir,

For the better future of your child, he must tolerate the remaining time till the transfers are allowed.

I dont understand why the institute is making the life of the articles a living hell.

1. There is no power with article and all the powers are given to the chartered accountant.

2. Articles are required to work for 35 hours a week and 48 hours in case of emergency but most of the CA's are making their articles sit in the office for more than 48 hours every week and no credit is being given to the articles.

3. As per institute we articles should be treated as a student, not an employee and our principal should be our teacher, not our employer but in most of the cases its reverse of that.

Our institute is not taking any steps to improve these things rather its concentrating on non sense things like stopping the transfer of articles. Our institute has indirectly brought 'SLAVERY SYSTEM' In the life of the articles and we cannot do anything.
