I am a CA Final student having cleared Group 2 in May 2015 Exams recently and will be appearing Group 1 in Nov 15 Exams.
Sir, I am actually very interested in Direct Taxes and wish to pursue a career in it [want to seek employment (but not go for practice) in the Direct Tax Department of a CA Firm]. I actually wanted some Career related advise from you.
Apart from doing CA Final, I have also passed my CS Executive Exams and planning to register in the CS Professional Course (Final).
My query is will the CS Degree have any impact/ add any value to my Tax profile or are the 2 courses poles apart i.e. having nothing in common.
I am very confused whether to enrol for the CS professional Course. I really need valuable advice regarding this. I would be very grateful to you if you could reply to this E-Mail.
Tax is your favourite subject which is very clear and I am sure you'll be able to pursue this as a career successfully. So first focus on clearing CA final. After that join a CA firm or Job which provides you an option to work in the profile of taxation.
Further CS will definitely give a boost to your career as CS is also a professional qualification. There is no harm in continuing with your CS study. But first focus on clearing CA final.
