In Brief
An Advocate on Record sought permission to register and use "Law Chambers of Siddharth Murarka" as his professional style instead of his individual name alone, noting that partnership firms face no such restrictions. The Supreme Court held that while the Rules cannot be judicially amended, the advocate may use this descriptive style on letterheads and legal documents without changing his registered status. Any formal expansion of registration to permit sole proprietorships requires rule amendment by the competent authority. The petition was disposed, allowing the specific styling while maintaining the Rules' integrity.
