“This is only an idea with us. We have to discuss it at the Central Council level and then write to the government,” Vikamsey said at a press conference, his first after assuming charge as the 65th President of the single largest accountancy body in the world.
His remarks are significant as the disciplinary framework of the CA institute had in recent years come under scanner after several corporate scams, including the one relating to Satyam Computers.
Asked about the status of the institute assuming powers to penalise erring CA firms, Vikamsey said ICAI had already recommended to the government that the relevant law be amended for this purpose. “We will again take this up with the government during my tenure”, he added.
Vikamsey said the institute will this year work closely with the Central and State governments to ensure successful implementation of goods and service tax (GST).
“The other priority for me is to help expand the income taxpayer base,” he said, adding that “We want to be a true partner to the government in nation building”. #casansaar (The Hindu Business)
