18 March 2010 Hello Experts

I have completed B.Com this year and hv dedcided to take take up ca as a career. But due to delay in making the decision i am in a jeopardy as to the time factor and wish to utilise the same time to get myself an additional qualifiaction which will be beneficial for me together with my ca degree at a later stage.I have also been working in a ca firm for some time, and so i have decided to take up either icwa or cs as another prospect. What i can't make out is that which course will be more beneficial for me-for instance if i take icwa i wld finish it before ca and wld be able to start practice in quite a similar field. but if i tk up cs then the field will be different.

Please help me out here..

18 March 2010 In my view, a CA + CS combination wuold be better. The CA qualification will give you knowledge of accounts, taxation, business finance, whereas the CS qualification will give you knowledge of SEBI and corporate laws.

A professional with knowledge in these two areas can provide restructuring advise to clients and have a better stand of issues than a CA+CWA.

18 March 2010 Agree with Mr. Rasesh.

CA + CS is batter option.

CA + CWA is good option.

CA + CFA(USA) is Best option.
