Being a partner in CA firm, Can I practice in individual name also?

I am a partner in ca firm and I can not register any proprietorship for myself in ICAI as per rules of the firm. Now I want to do some work in my personal capacity without constituting a proprietary firm in ICAI. Personal practice will have work of audit, attest function and consultancy. Is it possible to do in personal capacity without having FRN. One of the renowned faculty of ICAI told that A CA can not do any type of work in his personal capacity without registering proprietary firm if he is a partner in another ca firm. I request all on you to enlighten the above matter.

You definitely do a consultancy work which must not have attestation element in it and sign the document in personal capacity as a CA.
