With this arrangement, the two nations would be playing leadership role in their
respective region.
Delivering the vote of thanks, CA. Uttam Prakash Agarwal, Vice – President,
ICAI, reiterated, “ The Chartered Accountancy profession has carried out a realty
check and it understands that it has to compete with global professionals. I have
full conviction that this profession will find the path to professional achievements
in the outside world.”
The signing of MoU heralds a phase of new relationship between the members of
the two countries. It will enable the respective member at either end, to take the
membership of the other Institute. The membership of the local accounting body
would provide larger professional avenues to members at respective end and
would lead to a win-win situation for the members of both the accounting
bodies.
The arrangement provides that existing members of ICAI with two years of post
qualification experience will be eligible for ICAEW membership on passing the
ICAEW's one paper on Case Study. The ICAI members with less than two years
of experience will be required to pass 3 papers- Case Study, Technical
Integration Business change, Technical Integration Business Reporting.
On the other hand, members of ICAEW who are trained in public practice will
become eligible for ICAI membership subject to passing ICAI's 4 no.s of
examination papers for the special modules – Taxation; Law, Ethics &
Communication; Information Technology & Strategic Management; and Auditing

Looking at the trade relationship between India & UK, it is expected that quite a
good number of members of ICAI will be opting for the membership of ICAEW
and vice-versa.
