services rendered by its members, and has come to occupy a prominent role in our economy and society.

1,78,000. Increasing responsibilities are being placed by the Government and the society on the members
of the profession and their specialised knowledge and skills are being utilised in various fields of activities.
Statutory recognition is given to the role of the members of the profession and their audit / certification is
