Conversion of CA proprietor firm to partnerhip firm
I am Karthik G M, Chartered Accountant practicing in individual name without any firm registration since 2019. I am planning to join as partner to “Lingaraju & Co”, sole proprietary firm established in the year 1997. We want to change the firm name into “Lingaraju & Karthik” and intending to retain same firm registration number (FRN) of “Lingaraju & Co.”
My critical point is to retain FRN of Lingaraju & Co.
My query
1. is it compulsory to retain Firm name "Lingaraju & Co" to retain earlier FRN? or
2. is it possible to change Firm name as "Lingaraju & Karthik" and retain earlier FRN?

You can continue the same FRN. Just apply for name change.
