Is it necessary

 

Respected Experts,

An advocate in the roll of Andhra Pradesh State Bar Council, has shifted to Pune and have not registered his license to Maharashtra & Goa State Bar Council, but running his Law firm at Pune( Dealing with Tax Laws & Legal Advisory Services), does he need to get registered himself with Maharashtra & Goa State Bar Council.  Or he can continue the practice without doing so or he certainly have to transfer his License to Maharashtra & Goa State Bar Council.

I got this news that advocates only can appear before Income Tax Authorities, please go through the link below

Your advice is highly appreciated

Regards

Hemanth

If so then what about this news...sir,

NEW DELHI, AUG 27, 2011: GOVERNMENT has said that it has notified Section 30 of the Advocates Act, 1961 recently enabling the lawyers to practice in courts across the country irrespective of their enrolment in any Bar Council without the need to transfer licence to their desired States.

Giving this information in written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, Mr Salman Khurshid, Minister of Law & Justice, said that subject to provision of the Advocates Act, 1961, every advocate whose name is entered in the State roll shall be entitled as of right to practice throughout the territories to which this Act extends. He informed the House that this section has come into force with effect from the 15th June, 2011.
