About
ICAI ARF |
| |
The
Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India, set up under an Act of Parliament
– The Chartered Accountants Act, 1949,
has set up ICAI Accounting Research
Foundation (ICAI-ARF) in January, 1999
as a Section 25 company – a core
research body in the areas of
accounting, auditing, capital market,
fiscal policies, monetary policies and
other related disciplines. Since then,
ICAI-ARF has undertaken many projects
involving basic and applied research.
ICAI ARF believes that proper research
inputs are necessary condition for
raising the level of corporate
governance, management, accounting and
financial reporting. High quality
research projects would also, needless
to mention, provide valuable inputs in
formulation of policies and
implementation thereof at macro and
micro levels.
