30 January 2015Hello,
I have recently cleared my CA Finals in Nov2014. I am aware of the fact that i cannot use CA as a prefix unless i am awarded the membership number.
I wanted to know whether i can use ACA in professional qualifications under my name for resume purpose, before i get the membership?
Legally, you cannot use the word "ACA" if you have no membership number.
You can say "CA Final Cleared"
I just loose my mind on the day of result when CA Final passouts change their name by adding the prefix CA. This is ludicrous.They have cleared CA Finals and they are still ignorant about the law.
For Resume, you should use " CA Final cleared" only.

Hi,
First of all Congratulation . .!!
Agreed with Hammad Rashid Sir
You have to be member of ICAI in Register of member by applying memebship application then only you can use the two magical word "CA" as prefix in our name.

Hi Mayank,
You cannot use the prefix CA before your name unless you have awarded membership no. by ICAI.
I m very sorry that you have passed out CA final but you have not knowledge of professional ethics in Audit Paper.
Prefix ACA is for Associate membership no of ICAI. So you can not use this also.
Using of this prefix is contravention of Chartered Accountant Act 1949. Read section 24 with Section 4 & 5 of Chartered Accountant Act 1949.

Hi Mayank,
Yes I read this at that time. But you mentioned that can you use the ACA or not.

passing the exam doesnot mean that you are practising the profession which is understood only if you become a memeber therafter.some persons engage themselves actively in other professions.

Hi Mayank. first of all congrats in the corporate world, but as per ethics and rules of ICAI act, one can not use CA with with his name unless his/her name is registered in membership register oof ICAI. So better to get the Membership number to call yourself Chartered Accountant.
