Bar non-compliant cos from filing event-based reports: MCA

The government today asked Registrar of Companies (RoC) to make sure that firms which do not file their balance sheets and annual returns regularly, are barred from filing any other event-based reports.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) also said that from July 3, no e-filing shall be accepted by the RoC from Directors of these defaulting companies for any other company also.
"All Companies will have to file their updated Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss Accounts and Annual Return with the RoC before recording any event based information/ changes made and no request, whether oral, in writing or through e-forms will be accepted in this regard," the MCA said in a statement.
It further directed Company Secretaries and auditors of these companies not to sign and certify the filing with MCA-21 system (the Ministry''s e-governance platform), in respect of these defaulting companies, till the defect is rectified.
"Members of ICAI, ICSI and ICWAI must not issue any certificates to such defaulting companies other than above mentioned e-forms. And, action will be taken against the defaulting companies and their Directors/ officers in default in co-ordination with RBI and Sebi," it said.
However, the ministry said, this order would not apply to such companies where the balance sheet and annual return could not be filed due to order of court/company law board or any other competent authority and RoC concerned has marked this company as having management dispute.

Tips to get success in CA exams after continuos failure

Four days before somewhere I read : 
If you continue to do what you used to do before;

You will get the same result which you had before.

I  realized a great message lying in two lines - specially for CA students because many students immediately start their studies on declaration of CA results, but without any major changes in their study patterns, presentation and style.
This is the only reason of continuous failure of CA students.

The following facts are based on my research on study patterns of students :


1. Many students can't complete the paper due to slow writing speed.


After examining various students; now I find that they also have slow speed of reading. If speed reading is missing; subject would also become typical to understand.


For example; in law subjects; if there is not a good speed to read the sections; the meaning would not be understood well.


Hence slow speed of reading results into slow think process which ultimately leads to slow writing.


2. Whether speed reading is possible for every student ?


Suppose one student reads 6 pages per hours and another one can read 12 pages per hour. It looks simple to know its effect of consuming double time by the second one but still students don't care to improve their reading speed.

Why ?

Because they mentally accept that their reading speed is slow.

Most of the students don't try to increase their reading speed.


3. First reading of the Book is too slow


Major fault is to focus first reading with too much care. 

Although all students know very well that first reading will not give good confidence in the subject. Still they consume a good portion of their study time in first reading.


4. How to overcome first reading speed breaker ?


1st Step : Refer Index of the Book and mark New Words.

2nd Step : To know the meaning of New Words : open the page number shown against the point in the Index and read only 2 lines of the relevant para.

3rd Step : Before you close your study hours; revise the new terms without fail. It will hardly take 10 more minutes.

4th Step : Have a look at the Index ( in parts - every time ) daily to familiarize with the topics and its contents.

5th Step : Read the whole index of the book in this manner at least for 4 times. It will hardly take 4-5 days.

6th Step : Start one topic and firstly read its heading only.

7th Step : Now start the full topic. Surprisingly; you will not find any speed breaker which disturbed you before.

8th Step : Revise the whole chapter without fail. It will hardly take 15-20 minutes.

9th Step : Don’t leave typical points to see them later on. These are the most important points to clear your CA Exams. For example; if you escape to study Foreign Taxation later on in Direct Tax; you will never have confidence in the topic at the time of examination leaves.


Benefits of taking above Steps while studying : 

1. Immediate identification of important and typical points in the subject. 


2. Confidence in the subject and its topic.

3. Less time consumption in Thought Process of the contents.

4. Ultimately increase in the speed of reading and writing.

5. More time to discuss with the friends and faculties.

6. More time for typical points which is a must to clear CA Exams.

Automatic shifting from CA Final(Old) to CA Final(New) Course


As announced earlier on the Institute’s website, the Final (Old) examination stands discontinued with the culmination of November, 2010 examination.

Consequent upon the discontinuance of Final (Old) Course, students registered under the Final (Old) Course will be shifted to Final (New) Course automatically and for the purpose a letter to this effect will be issued to all such students - a physical letter as well as through e-mail (if available on record). No conversion fee shall be charged from such students, but the Final (New) Study Materials be issued to them at a concessional price of Rs. 300/- per subject (including Practice Manual) on production of the said letter being issued by the concerned Decentralized Offices.

This decision shall come into force from February 2, 2011, and that the students of Final (Old) Course who have already filed the prescribed form along with a sum of Rs. 1,100/- to the concerned Decentralized Offices and have been issued the study material would be sent a letter as per the existing practice.

Since the process of sending physical letters may take 10-15 days and there may be chances of bouncing back of e-mails, students are advised, to save the time, if possible, to approach personally to receive the said letter so that they can purchase the Study Material on the same day at a concessional rate.

Please note that sale of Study Materials at concessional price is available upto May 15, 2011 and students are advised to utilize the facility at the earliest.

Students are also advised to submit their examination application forms in time even if they could not receive the above said letter so as to appear in the Final Examination to be held in May, 2011.
