the top forensic firms in india wud be KPMG E&Y PWC DELOITTE....there is also 1 oder firm in pune named india forensic....there are a couple of good firms in mumbai too srry i m not able to remember their names....forensic accounting is very nascent in india there is still plenty of further development to be done...it is a very demanding sector u shud always be on ur toes....the money is awesome....but apart from being ca/cwa u must have proper adequately updated knowledge of IT......it is like a cid- white collar crime....TRY for cfe...but i doubt whether it is recognised in india or not....wat i suggest u is first u could complete ca + CIA(certified internal auditor)....tis would give u more scope and experience in cracking CFE(certified fraud examiner).. certified forensic accountant is offered by india forensic
