THE MILESTONES OF OP SINGHANIA

Posted by Rakul Deep on September 2nd, 2019

Chartered Accountant OP Singhania, a self made person, started from scratch and created a name for himself in this Profession. Recently  he penned down his experiences, struggles, and learning in a book called Not  One in a Million.

There are not many things that really occur in our lives and still have that one interface with each man's life. While we get a look with an anecdotal story, there are stories that really happened in a simple way, if not all the more astounding. People we consider as stalwarts in their trade, where ones kids with their dream. Indeed, they went against all odds and accomplished the right way to deal with them.

Coming from a small village Lailunga, OP Singhania strived hard to fulfill the vision and ambition of his father who wished to see him as a successful CA. Since childhood, this idea had been instilled in him and he was sent to Kolkata to pursue his CA.

In the year 2001, he was elected as Chairman of Raipur Branch of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. During his chairmanship, the Raipur Branch was awarded best branch by the Central India Regional Council, highly commanded branch by the ICAI, New Delhi and best Student Association Branch by the Central India Regional Council.

During his chairmanship he started publishing newsletters which were distributed to almost every chartered accountant of Chhattigarh State (at that time around 600 Chartered Accountants were residing in the state of Chhattisgarh). He had also organized various national , regional seminars and conferences, including the Inter Regional Conference at Kolkata.

He had also been nominated as member of Professional Development Group constituted for the State of Chhattisgarh by ICAI, New Delhi.

Presently he is a member of the Financial reporting Reviewer Group of Chhattisgarh constituted by the Financial Reporting Review Board (FRRB) of ICAI, New Delhi.

Mr. OP Singhania  is a member of the governing body of the State Resource Centre, Chhattisgarh formed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development of India. 

Mr. OP Singhania had been associated with the CII Chhattisgarh State Council since its year of establishment and serving as Convener of taxation and finance penal of the state council since long. During his tenure in CII, OP Singhania has organised a lot of seminars, conference, interactive and lecture meetings on the various subjects related to taxation, finance, banking, capital market, SEBI, IBC etc.

He has also served as a Consultant/Auditor to National Institute of Technology, (NIT)Raipur, Indian Institute of Management, (IIM) Raipur, Government Medical College, Raipur etc.

He was instrumental to formation of URLA industries association and serving them as honorary auditor since its inception.

Beyond these pioneering activities, the profound Chartered Accountant in Central India truly believes in keeping him grounded in the core principles of his life: humility, honesty, and integrity. For him a perfect vision of Life can only follow a complete realization of “The Self” - or you may say “Rediscovering your own conscience every day”.
