The important thing is whether this is professionally applicable or not.

The moment you qualify in CA; means you are capable to handle various professional assignment. So it is not a question at all which portion is applicable and which is not.  

You may read institutes modules first and regularly update your knowledge through Institute's Journal (Members' Journal) etc..
