Hi! I want to pursue ICWA too. I answered CA Final in June 2009 awaiting results. If I register prior to Dec 2009 for ICWA can i answer in june 2010? and will it be possible for me to complete full syllabus of ICWA inter till june 2010 as i already have studied a part of syllabus in CA Final. Does CWA have articles? How many years?

Monika,

CA and CWA have equal importance and nowaday govt. is going to compulsory cost audit for manufacturing companies whose annual turnover is more than 50lacs. ICWAI also devoloping 28 accounting standards out of which 6 are released and remaining will be relised within a year or two. so day by day importance of CWA is going to increase. so there is no matter of CA/ CWA.

beyend this if u aim is to become more degree holder then u can go for CA/CS/CFA. CA/CS will take ur more time instead if u will go for CFA after complition of CWA u will gate exemption for 1st year in CFA and u may gate CFA degree within a year.

i think cwa has all the scope these days .though one can see a ca degree as anultimate professional degree but again as compared to ca cwa has limited scope of employment but having specialised field cwa is also in drastic demand
