Chartered Accountants Day 2024: History
Chartered Accountants Day 2024: History
The Institutes of Chartered Accountants of India came into existence on July 1, 1949, when the parliament passed The Chartered Accountants Act, 1949 to develop the profession of Chartered Accountants. Before the establishment of ICAI, the accounting profession in the country was unregulated. The ICAI introduced a framework that governs education qualification, and professional conduct of Chartered Accountants nationwide.

Chartered Accountants Day 2024: Why is July 1 celebrated as CA Day?
The British government in India kept accounts under the Companies Act before independence. Subsequently, the British government created a diploma programme in accounting for auditors. After completing this course, students were eligible to work as auditors all over the country.
In 1930, it was decided that the government keep a register, called the ‘Register of Accountants.’ And everyone whose name appeared in the registry was referred to as a Registered Accountant.
The accounting profession was mostly unregulated due to a lack of effective norms and regulations and hence an expert committee was established in 1948 to investigate the situation. The expert committee advised that a separate autonomous accounting society be founded to regulate the profession. On their advice, the Chartered Accountants Act was passed by the Indian government in 1949.
