I am a CA & CS , presently working in a fortune 500 company. I am thinking of pursuing CFA (USA), please suggest/advise whether it would be beneficial for me to pursue the course as it involves substantial time and money.

Hye, CFA (US) undoubtedly has one the best curriculum in the world in Finance. You are already working with a fortune 500 company which is even better, because CFA is recognised by all Fortune 500 companies.
The only thing which you need to consider is whether your profile involves analysis and dealing with equity, debt or other complex instruments, or you are interested in this kind of profiles. The CFA curriculum is largely associated to capital market instruments, financial market analysis etc.
So if you have interest in these segments, CFA would be best for you.
