The conference, held on August 9th and 10th, 2024, was hosted by the Bengaluru Branch of SIRC of ICAI.
The theme for this year's conference was "JIGNASA," derived from Sanskrit, symbolizing curiosity, inquisitiveness, and the quest for knowledge. The event also emphasized "Adyata," focusing on accuracy, data-driven insights, trust, auditing excellence, and technology-enabled learning. Together, these themes guided the two-day event, inspiring thought-provoking discussions and continuous learning.
The conference featured a series of technical sessions on topics such as GST, FEMA, Income Tax, Companies Act, Information Technology, Direct Taxes, and more, led by eminent resource persons of international repute. Notably, the sessions explored the future of Chartered Accountants in the advanced technological era and the use of AI in accounting. The topics were thoughtfully chosen to align with the evolving landscape of the accounting profession.
One of the highlights of the conference was a special session on health, titled "Healthy CA is Healthy Balance Sheet," delivered by senior cardiologist and Member of Parliament, Dr. Manjunath. This session underscored the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle for professional excellence.
Sreedevi, Anusha, and Haribrindha actively engaged in the various sessions, contributing to discussions and bringing back valuable insights to their roles. Moreover, the team excelled in a quiz contest, which featured 10 questions posed between the technical sessions. Demonstrating their collective expertise and teamwork, they won 5 out of the 10 quiz contests, highlighting their deep understanding of the subjects discussed.
