Not included
What you will still need outside this format:
- The engagement letter itself: use the accounting, GST, income-tax or secretarial engagement letter already in the catalogue and annex these schedules to it.
- Client acceptance, know-your-client and conflict check records, which are separate formats.
- The portal access arrangement and the records-sharing consent, which are separate formats.
- Engagement letters for representation, audit and certification work, which are engaged separately.
- For a firm of company secretaries, the Company Secretaries Act 1980 and ICSI provisions on fees, which replace the ICAI references in the fee schedule.
- Stamp duty on the signed engagement letter and schedules, where the State's Stamp Act treats them as an agreement.
