The Society of Indian Law Firms, a collective of
India’s Premier Law Firms, has filed a complaint dated
18th June 2015 with the Bar Council of India claiming that
the big four CA firms, E&Y, Deloitte, KPMG & PWC,
are carrying on unauthorized practice of law and that this
contravenes
section 29 of the Advocates Act which provides
that only Indian citizens who are enrolled with the State
Bar Councils as advocates have the right to practice the
profession of law in India. The Complaint has given
specific instances of the alleged violation of law by
E&Y, Deloitte, KPMG and PWC.
