ICAI to increase stipend for CA Articles

A minimum stipend offered to the CA aspirants doing articleship at CA firms will be hiked by 2.5 times to 3 times, president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India(ICAI) Jaydeep  Shah announced here today. Talking to newsmen on the sidelines of a conference of CA students, Shah said the amount of stipend varies and depends upon areas fixed by the ICAI like an urban or semi-urban etc. A CA aspirant has to compulsorily undergo three and half years of articleship and get trained at CA firms after clearing first of the two Integrated Professional Competence Course (IPCC) groups. He said if someone is getting a stipend of Rs 1,000 per month would now get between Rs 2500 and Rs 3,000.   He also said that the ICAI has made large investments over the years for different initiatives. Shah claimed that it is still much less costly to do a CA course compared to other professional courses in India. Welcoming the ICAI move to increase the stipend, an office bearer of local chapter of ICAI, M J Parsiya said, “It is a welcome step and will act as morale booster for many as stipend hike will come handy in planning their monthly expenses.” “Stipend amount depends on the population of the city, size of the CA firm and its ability to pay the CA aspirants under articleship,” he said.

    Dear students,
    Please note that the concept of stipend is surely not to lure you with money. It is to only compensate you for the time spent on job. You should understand that there is nothing that stops the institute from prescribing a higher amount. The only reason Institute does not do it is to KEEP YOU AWAY FROM MONEY. Once you see money you are lured by it and may loose focus which is to qualify and become a CA. Also you need to understand that you also learn when on the job. Stipend is only incidental. The main objective of training is that you learn.
    I hope the rhetoric of the amount will come down.
    Good luck to all those who take up CA as a career choice.
    Ritesh
