Continuing Professional Education (CPE) hours
In alignment with the directives of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), members in practice and holding a Certificate of Practice (COP) are required to complete a specified number of CPE hours annually. This ensures that practicing professionals remain conversant with emerging taxation notifications, accounting standards, and international regulations.
CPE Hours Requirements
Under current guidelines, practicing Chartered Accountants below 60 years of age are required to complete at least 20 structured CPE learning hours annually (or 120 credit hours in a rolling block of 3 years) to maintain active audit and signatory statuses.
