Chartered Accountants Day History

Before ICAI was established, all the companies in India used to keep their accounts maintained as per the provisions of the Companies Act of India. The British government launched a diploma course for auditors. People who became certified auditors were allowed to audit the books of accounts. Thus, the accounting profession remained unregulated till 1948. An expert committee is known to have suggested the formation of an autonomous body that could regulate the accounting profession in India. Thus, the Chartered Accountant Act was passed in 1949, following which the ICAI was established on July 1 of the same year. The ICAI Foundation Day is celebrated as Chartered Accountants Day in India.
