Apprentice
Apprentice [fr. apprendre, Fr., to learn], a person bound by indentures of apprenticeship to a tradesman or artificer ,who covenants to teach him his trade or mystery.

Regularly
Regularly, the word 'regularly' in clause (b) of s. 12(3) has a significance of its own. It enjoins a payment or tender characterised by reasonable punctuality, that is to say, one made at regular times or intervals. The regularity contemplated may not be a punctuality, of clock-like precision and exactitude, but it must reasonably conform with substantial proximity to the sequence of times or intervals at which the rent falls due, Mranalini B. Shah v. Bapalal Mohanlal Shah, AIR 1980 SC 954 (956): (1980) 4 SCC 251.

Regularly kept books of account
Regularly kept books of account, to ascertain whether a book of account has been regularly kept the nature of occupation is an eminent factor for weighment. The test of regularity of keeping accounts by a shopkeeper who has daily transactions cannot be the same as that of a broker in real estates. Not only their systems of maintaining books of account will differ but also the yardstick of contemporaneity in making entries therein. It is not possible to accept the view that an entry must necessarily be made in the book of account at or about the time the related transaction takes place so as to enable the book to pass the test of 'regularly kept'. The rule fixes no precise time and each case must depend upon its own circumstances, CBI v. V.C. Shukla, AIR 1998 SC 1406: (1998) 3 SCC 410....
