u/Strong-Direction-704

I passed my CA Inter in May 2024 and have started my 2 year articleship period which will be completed on 22nd August 2026.

I initially joined a firm and left after 3 months as I was not able to adjust with the work environment. Work was good but the environment of comparison always kills me so I shifted my firm thinking for a change.

I joined another firm in Nov 2024 and in the start the environment was good and the work experience was good enough.

But then there was a twist where I could see my seniors struggling to get a sign on form 108 in an off season. The partner tortured my senior for a month to sign even though he had passed the CA final and has landed a job in another firm.

Then since Oct 2025 I could see that my partner isn't behaving normally with me. It was like a different behaviour with me and a different behaviour with the others. I was like okay let's just complete the articleship and leave the firm.

Recently my colleague asked for form 108 signature which was supposed to be signed on July 22 2026 but was signed on 14th August 2926 due to which he had to book his MCS classes in Pune. He informed the partner. The partner said if he didn't come back after the classes he would complain to ICAI that he had forged the signature and uploaded the form 108 without any consent and told him to sign the declaration stating that he should come from Sept 11 to Sept 30 just because of the audit season.

Why would any person serve an excess period?

The management is fucked, they didn't teach the new juniors audit report and expect us to file all and leave.

We have been doing overtime since June 15th. Are we slaves or what.

I reached ICAI for help they literally mentioned to close this with the partner and don't go to ICAI.

And the truth always prevails ICAI ONLY PROTECTS ITS MEMBERS.

Anyone please take serious action on the partner.

There are many other serious issues. Will post about them soon.
