You have to decide which career you want to pursue- as a CA or as an Actuary. The career prospect of Actuary is better than CA but the exam is also much tougher than CA.

Rightly said by Prodyut Banerjee
The exam is gonna little tough. But even if you clear just ne module you have more value then CA!!

I personally feel it does have a lot of value.... I know a couple of person who actually are persuing this course and have cleared 4 - 5 papers too...

No qualification only by itself has a lot of value unless you are capable enough to get value out of it. I personally know one CA in my home town (with more than 10 years experience) whose earning is less than 10000 a month and he has lost his hope on the profession. Similarly I know one CS having the same footing. Should we say that CA or CS has no value? To conclude - Actuary is one of the best profession, not only in India but world over.

Hi frnds!
Do u know?
A combination of CA+ACTUARY makes it a great difference not only in terms of knowledge but even enhanses the income level by leaps and bounds.
For students in kolkata i can suggest a brilliant tutorial run by an ACTUARY himself.The contact person is MR. NISHANT and contact him at 09332548028.Its a pleasure learning from him.

It is a very good option as the recent revisions in Accounting standards have increased the demand for ActuariesEg: AS 15 calls for an actuarial valuation for gratuity & long term compensated absence. In south India for instance there are only two eminent actuaries - One in channai & One in bangalore(Father & Son). LIC too does the work but the quqlity i feel is superior in the case of the practising actuaries. My ain goal is CA but i m thinking about actuary too. Will check out that TARGETACTUARY site u had quoted above.
