Dear Sumit,

Using CA as a prefix to our name is the privilege given to us like doctors can use Dr.

So we can use it for Wedding Cards without any doubt.

yes...you can use it.

as far as i know, only those people who are not holding COP (i.e. those members who are not practising) cannot use CA infront of their names...

Correct me if i'm wrong

No mate it can be used by every member of the institute. And as for the question, prefix can be used keeping in clause 6 & 7 of first schedule of the Act. matlab u can not gain undue publicity by any means. And practically no one would print his professional attainments and expertise on his marriage card n neither his firms' name. :)

These are not only just Two Words 'CA'. This shows our existence as well as Identity in this competitive word. We are privileged to use these words before our names. Use these words as Prefix.

Take Care.

As per clause 6 of part 1 of first schedule of code of ethics and guidelines issued by the council thereunder, a member is allowed to use his designation "chartered accountant" as well as name of the firm in greeting cards, invitation for marriages, religious ceremonies etc. Only if the same is being sent to his clients, relatives or close friends. So is this condition is satisfied the designation can be used.

Any member of ICAI may use this prefix, while a member holding COP is bound to use this prefix at places like letter head, while addressing himself in public etc.
