Non Refundable Charges for Empanlement by Bank of Rajasthan

Dear Fellow Professionals,

Please go through the attachment note the bold sentence.(Emphasis supplied). A nationalised bank is inviting application for empanelment of concurrent auditors with processing fee alongwith the application form. It is high time we all should protest such actions.

It is a shame on the entire profession. Had it been a refundable Earnest Money Deposit, we could understand. What is the logic of asking for non-refundable processing fee? Are we chartered accountants are begging before this bank or other banks for assignments and all so that they are forced to limit the enquiries? It is utter non-sense. We all should unite and tell the bank that this is not the way to assign an audit to a noble professional who is specially trained and experience for this job. ICAI should take up this matter with the bank authorities. It is just like equating a chartered accountant with a street vendor. The bank should be coming to us for getting the audits done and not the other way round and ask for a processing fee also!!!. Ridiculous!!. STAND UP AND SAY NO!

Suppose, out of around 65000 CA's, at least 2000 all over India apply for the same, the bank will be getting Rs. 40.00 lakhs, which will be sufficient for them to pay the concurrent audit fee for at least 40 branches for one year. What a brilliant idea!!!

Your opinion on this is highly appreciated.
