On ICAI's Plea, Karnataka HC Restrains Company From Certifying Individuals As "Fit To Practise" Income Tax, GST, Custom Brokerage, Etc

Live Law  

The Karnataka High Court has by way of an interim order restrained a private company from offering courses under the name and title of 'Post Graduate Diploma in Taxation Professional Skill Qualification.' The court restrained M/s Institute of Chartered Tax Practitioners India, from issuing any licence to any person authorising such a person or certifying that person to be fit to practise as an Income Tax practitioner, GST practitioner, Custom broker or the like. Petitioner said the program titled 'Post Graduate Diploma in Taxation' that confers the title of a 'Chartered Tax Practitioner' offered by the Company is allegedly offered by a Medhavi Skills University and is recognized under the UGC Act, 1956. Moreover, the word 'Chartered' being used in the name of the alleged degree i.e., 'Chartered Tax Practitioner' being conferred by the Company and use of the word 'Chartered' in its own name, leads to a misleading connotation that the Company is in fact a statutory body established under a statute or a legislation and that the degrees awarded to the candidates are in fact legitimate arising out of that statute which is not the case, the plea states.
