CA Arun Somanath
It is with immense pride, humility, and gratitude that I address you as the Chairman of our Chapter.
First and foremost, I bow in deep reverence to our alma mater, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), an institution that has shaped not only our professional competence but also our ethical foundation and global outlook.
Our Chapter, established in 1981, stands tall today as the oldest and most vibrant overseas chapters of ICAI. This legacy has been built brick by brick by visionary leaders, committed committee members, generous sponsors, and engaged members who believed in collective growth over individual success.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all our past Chairmen/Chairwomen and Managing Committees whose dedication, foresight, and relentless efforts have strengthened the Chapter year after year. Their initiatives in professional development, knowledge-sharing forums, networking platforms, and community engagement have created a strong foundation upon which we proudly stand today.
