Question

Under the Schedules, the dividing line between “other misconduct” in the First Schedule (Part I

I for a member held guilty by a court is based on:
V and the Second Schedule (Part II

A Whether the offence was committed in or outside India Correct Incorrect

B Whether the member is an associate or a fellow Correct Incorrect

C Whether the member is in practice or in service Correct Incorrect

D Whether the offence involved a financial loss to a client Correct Incorrect

E Whether the offence is punishable with imprisonment up to six months (First Schedule) or exceeding six months (Second Schedule) Correct Incorrect

Detailed Solution

First Schedule, Part IV treats a member as guilty of other misconduct if he is held guilty by a civil or criminal court of an offence punishable with imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months (or, in the Council's opinion, brings disrepute to the profession). Second Schedule, Part III treats a member as guilty of other misconduct if he is held guilty of an offence punishable with imprisonment for a term exceeding six months. The dividing line is thus the maximum imprisonment - up to six months versus more than six months - making it correct.
