(1) A certified copy of the entry in the state roll relating to the applicant; and
(2) A certificate from the state council stating
-
that his certificate of enrolment has been recalled,
-
that the applicant is entitled to practise on the date of his application,
-
that there are no disciplinary proceedings pending against the applicant, and
-
that it has no objection to the transfer being ordered.
On receipt of an application for transfer, the secretary will enquire from the state council concerned whether they have any objection to transfer being granted. Thereafter the papers must be placed for disposal before the council or a committee constituted for the purpose. The Bar Council of India may, after hearing the applicant, reject the application if it is not bonafide or if there is a disciplinary proceeding pending against the applicant.
In case the Bar Council of India allows the transfer, the same will be duly communicated to the applicant. Thereafter it is the duty of the applicant to produce the certificate of enrolment issued to him for endorsement to the state council on the roll of which his name appears. The state council may as soon as possible after endorsement and the making of necessary entries in the roll, transfer the certificate to the state council to which the name of the advocate is directed to be transferred. The secretary of the latter state council must make further endorsements. After all formalities are complied with, the transfer is deemed to take effect from the date of the direction of the Bar Council of India.
No fee is chargeable for transfer of names from one roll to another and the advocate who is transferred will retain the same seniority as he/she had on the rolls of the former bar council.
