Dear Readers CA DHAVAL JASANI
I am honored by the faith and confidence bestowed 
in me during the AGM held on 30th January 2016 and I take over this baton from CA Aman Vohra as The Chairman of Dar es Salaam Chapter. At this juncture, I place on record my sincere appreciation for CA Aman Vohra, all my fellow colleagues in the managing committee and all members in the Chapter for their dedication and support in Chapter’s functioning prior to inauguration and during first year of Chapter’s existence.
Dar es Salaam Chapter, inaugurated on 13th January 2015, is the 26th overseas Chapter of The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).
Tanzania is one of the fastest growing countries on the African Continent. Known for maintaining peace and political stability, Tanzania is now positioning itself on the Global Map with recent hydrocarbon discoveries in excess of 55 trillion cubic feet and more discoveries are under way.
Dar es Salaam Chapter has organized a number of professional events in its first year of operation since January 2015 thereby accumulating 1,680 CPE hours. Success of our Chapter is attributed to the overwhelming support of Chapter’s members. We continue to bestow trust and confidence on our Chapter’s members for their continued support and cooperation.
First Anniversary Celebrations held during January 2016 have been a grand success and our Chapter had the privilege of hosting eminent speakers including CA Yandamuri Veerendranath and Satish Mandora in presence of Top Leadership of ICAI and the High Commissioner of India to Tanzania. We are thankful to the dignitaries for their presence and valued guidance. We also extend our sincere thanks to all our stakeholders and sponsors for their generous contribution to make this event A Grand Success.

the chapter in terms of –
- Conducting professional development programs for the benefit of our members;

Class XI and XII students had shown their enthusiasm for joining Chartered Accountancy course during career counselling session conducted at The Indian School Dar es salaam on 30th January 2016 and our Managing Committee is committed to accord all required assistance.
All my fellow colleagues at the Managing Committee have been extremely committed in ensuring smooth functioning of Dar es Salaam Chapter.
We all firmly believe that –
"Commitment is an act, not a word." ― as rightly said by Jean-Paul Sartre
