Yes, the circular includes cost accountants into accountants definition
Could please share such circular?
No I think CMA cannot conduct tax audit
But they are saying that they can conduct the tax audit and circular has been released
It is true, MCA can conduct tax audit. Next an mba will study indirect taxation, advanced taxation and become a full fledged auditor

Can you share the circular?
Sure: https://icmai.in/upload/Taxation/Rep_Modification_19072019.pdf
This is the representation from ICMAI requesting the FM to include CMAs as accountants u/s 288. I'm referring to the circular from CBDT that has been stated above.
Cannot, They do Cost Audit, They can only.
CMA can conduct cost audit only u/s 148 of companies act
In upcoming future (2 or 3 years) CMA's can conduct Tax Audit also.
Government is doing work in this area for inclusion of Cost Accountants in Accountant definiation or may be merger of of both Institutes (ICMAI & ICAI).
