From The President

Dear Members,

Here comes April! The Romans gave this month the Latin name Aprilis, but the derivation from traditional etymology is from the verb aperire, meaning ‘to open’, in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to ‘open’, the season of Spring in the northern hemisphere.

Closer home at Bharat, April also coincides with the pious month of Chaitra, signalling the start of the harvesting season as well as a new calendar year, i.e. Shak Samvat 1947.

Even closer in the financial sector, April marks the beginning of a new fiscal year for commercial entities. As the largest economy begins its financial year in April, entities in our nation use April to assess their performance from the previous fiscal year with the objective to establish performance metrics for the new fiscal year.

For Chartered Accountants, April signifies the commencement of the busier period of the year as we undertake our professional duties for the companies and clients we serve. As your partner in learning and professional development, your Society has been organizing numerous learning and development events and will continue to do so, aiming to enhance our members' capabilities in managing their professional responsibilities.
