        Members are encouraged to wear a suit or a blazer with tie (preferbly of ICAI) as may be appropriate to the occasion. However, members may appear before any judicial forum and they have been prescribed a dress for appearing before such forum, then such dress shall apply in lieu of the dress mentioned above.

        Similary, members in employment, the dress shall be goverened by the rules, if any, prescribed by the concerned organisation, in lieu of the dress mentioned above.

        Considering that the purpose of prescribing the dress code is to uphold the dignity and to enhance decorum, members are particularly required to adhere to the dress code when they represent before any statutory authority or when attending a business meeting or important events.
