My Dear BCAS Family,
As I reflect on two recent landmark events with which we were associated, the beginning of the new financial year could not have been more auspicious. In the first event held on 7th April, 2026, at the BSE Convention Centre, BCAS was the Support Partner for Dharmam Chara 2026 (walking the path of Dharma and its relevance to Corporate Life), a unique programme by Sri Pratyaksha Charitable Trust under the auspices of Shri Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam, in the benign presence of His Holiness Jagadguru Pujyashri Shankara Vijayendra Saraswathi Shankaracharya Swamiji (“His Holiness”).
This was followed by a visit by His Holiness on 9th April, 2026, to bless our office and record a Podcast on “Culture – Foundation for Strong India | Sanskriti – Majboot Bharat ki Neev” moderated by our Past President, CA Mihir Sheth.

We are truly humbled by the following remarks by His Holiness in the visitors' book:
