“Members may also suitably advise their clients to arrange and provide the requisite banking information and documents at the earliest, so as to avoid any last-minute difficulties and facilitate timely completion of the applicable compliances,” the advisory said.

The institute’s advice comes as more than 1.5 lakh practising chartered accountants handle audit and other professional assignments.
