I have not come across any section/provision or rule in Advocate Act or BCI rule which prohibit practising CA from enrollment.

I request all member to give specific rule/section which prohibits practising CA from enrollment in BCI ( Please not vague answers please like Advocate act prohibits or can not do professions etc etc ..)
