07 September 2010 Career wise, both have its own future and I would put them at equal parlance. You can follow either one depending on your passion.

Statutory audit - You can become a partner in a firm or can set up your own practice in future.
Internal Audit - You can join a firm or a corporate or even set up your practice.

I will suggest to stick to statutory audit (if you are less experienced) and then move to other areas.
