Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the format of the Net Worth Certificate the same across India?
A: Yes, the format prescribed by ICAI is the same. The only difference is the property valuation (based on state-specific ready-reckoner rate) and stamp duty (state-wise).
Q: Can I get a Net Worth Certificate from a CA in another state?
A: Yes, the CA must be a practicing CA with ICAI membership. The CA can be from any state. UDIN is verified on the ICAI portal, so the state of issuance is irrelevant.
