    Proprietory firms should be given preference. They are capable and can appoint qualified staff for the purpose.Even remuneration has to be reasonable and tender system should be discouraged.The fees have to be in confirmity with standards as laid down.

    The site is not working since last two days. After filling all the details and when we click on register, it is showing message “We are sorry an error has occurred”. Is there any other link so that we can apply before the due date??

    -Thankyou.

  4. UMESH says:

    When i am doing the register for submitting , this error message is showing every time “We are Sorry, error has occurred.” please give the suggestion , how can i resolve this issue ?

  5. Cheenu Bhatia says:

    Please send link for undertaking as nothing is on the website in relation to undertaking. Also, the same was not generated at the time of generation of the acknowledgment.

  6. Nimesh says:

    i am unable for find undertaking letter which is required to be submitted with application form to the bank..please send link…

  7. Jameskutty Antony says:

    Sir

    The only way to overcome this situation is, we should not quote or accept assignments which are not remunerative. Some of our fellow professionals accept these cheap fees and that is why they come out with such low fees again.

    We are prohibited from participating in tenders and quoting fees unless the tender is open for Non-CA’s also. please see the link below:

    You need to send the same to the following address:

    The Deputy General Manager,
    Central Inspection Department
    Vijaya Bank
    Head Office,
    No.41/2,M.G.Road,
    Bangalore-560001

  9. Surajit Ghosh says:

    i am also confused about the address where we will send the undertaking along with the copy of online application. there is nothing found in the Vijaya Bank website in this regard.

    the CA firms those have no backings to get the assignment, are falling in great trouble to survive.

    in west bengal, we get a offer to do a audit of govt hospital which is about 40 to 50 kms away from kolkata, at a remuneration of rs.2500/- monthly on condition, that CA partner should visit the hospital at least once in a week and staff should attain the audit of atleat 3 to 4 days in a week.

    now various audit offer by the government or government company on EOI basis without giving full details about the assignment in their advertisement. some are asking tender deposit also. now we the member of premier institute of india are becoming contractor, fighting with each other to survive by way of undercutting of fees and compromising with the appointing authority by various ways.

    although it is universally truth that maker (management) can not be checker(auditor), but in our country maker is now appointing the checker and thereby influencing various ways to compromised with them otherwise, checker’s (auditor) are being dismissed on some fishy ground.

    please raise your voice in this matters

    Whether the link of empanellement of concurrent auditor vijaya bank has been removed from site? As written above that the last date date of application submission is 15.05.15. Please reply.

  11. CA MBG Tilak says:

    I absolutely agree with the views of Sarva Sri CA. Mukesh Saran, Natarajan
    etc & ICAI ought to do something good , “REVOLUTIONARY”, to save image of CA Firms particularly Proprietory firms.

  12. CA. Mukesh Saran says:

    Its nothing but a huge mockery of bank’s. They want quality without paying. The want value “WITHOUT” money. CA fraternity must do something “REVOLUTIONARY” to save image of CA, the “Alphabet of Trust”.

  13. natarajan says:

    The Scale of fees is very poor. The date of commencement of audit is from October 2013. Advertisement for the same is given after expiry of two months which itself indicates how much importance concurrent audit is being given

  14. Hitesh says:

    Only 29 branches are considered for concurrent audit. So many branches are outside the scope of statutory as well as concurrent audit. While reducing scope of statutory audit it was thought that more and more branches will be covered by concurrent audit, but it is not so. Again proprietorship firm is not eligible.

    Also scale of fee is low.
