Unless you do it practically u wont get Tax exposure/experience, you may consider switching job to get tax exposure or you may start part time practice with TRP.

You may consider short term diploma in taxation from good college also, it is offered by welingkar college.

Thanks

22 September 2014 As per my opinion you are on right track with gaining working experience and doing a professional course like CMA. I would not suggest u to leave ur present job. All I can say wait for the right opportunity and till than keep reading and understanding taxation.

You may join some work on part time basis for free or for less money which offer u tax work. Further focus on CMA preparation.

All the best

When you say Taxation, then it is very wide like, personnel taxation, corporate taxation, international taxation and list goes on..

Also in Ghatkoper you will get many practicing CA's /Taxation personnel, browse through Yellow pages/Jobs section of CCI.

Thanks.
