Should i go for cma?

You haven't provided your educational background or work experience. So answering your question becomes tricky but I shall try to explain what CMA does.

CMA'S are special class of professionals who work in the area of costing and management reporting.  They provide vital information to the board for making decision. They are valuable to any company

Having said above by merely passing CMA you cannot expect we'll deserving career. You have to compete with lot of other professionals like CAs and MBA .

Please go through the syllabus and also your interest before jumping into CMA path.

I wish you all the best .

CA  CS  CMA    Finance professionbals

Active CMA are only 30000 in India out of which 20000 are CA holders-Holding 2 qualifications.

Active CS only 25000  in India out of which 18000 are CA & CMA holders

A number of persons are already having 3 qualifications.

CA & CMA Syllabus (New) more or less same.

CS Syllabus is also more or less same where as some area more concentrated on legal and less in Accountancy.

While doing Plus Two go ahead for CA CS CMA at a time and while articleship take one additional course,there after finish balance.Accordingly one can become CA CS CMA at the age of 23/24

Select one ares as your profession.

Recruitment forum it is seen that majority of them having 3/2 Qualification.

Normally they will give weightage to 3  in one,then 2 in one and single qualification.

For Practicing one Qualification is enough

Active CMAs are only 30000 and out of which 20000 are CAs -- this is not true , Currently there are 78000 CMAs as per members register, again 20000 are CA is not also true because there is no such information available from the institute. As govt. is stressing on MAKE IN INDIA policy, due to this manufacturing process is bound to increase and without Cost and Management Accountant Manufacturing in India can not grow,So you can see there will be huge increase in the demand of CMAs. Go ahead with your dream to become Cost and Management Accountant.
