Cs with cs

Hi Rashmi,

As per my suggestion doing CS after getting membership of ICAI is not advisable. Get yourself registered now ensuring that your first attempt of CS becomes due only after clearing IPCC. (You have not mentioned your CA stage). While doing CA training you can prepare for CS. Do not forget to intimate ICAI about CS joining through filing of form 112.

With CA you should go for CS to grab top opportunities at management level. CS is a very good combination with CA as far as course content and understanding the corporate environment is concerned.

If you are having CS qualification then it would be counted as an additional advantage and you can easily and confidently handle or administer secretarial work/department along with the account work/department.

This advice is based on my professional experience. Hope this would be off some help. Other courses are also good. But my vote goes for CS as according to me CS qualification is the gate pass for top management position.

Best Regards

Other courses you can pursue with CS are:

1. CS, ICWA, CFA (US), CMA (UK). These are long term duration with more than 3 years.
2. CPA, CFP, CIA, CISA etc. are medium term duration depending upon the devotion and your level of knowledge.
3. Further there are many certification programmes like, CIFRS, NCFM, CMA (US) etc. NCFM course is conducted by the Indian Stock Exchanges and concerned with security market.

The combination of CA+CFA is good in case the interest is for Investment banking and Portfolio Management.

The combination of CA+CPA is also a good one in case interest is in Accounting and Auditing field.

The Combination of CA+CS is also good as explained above.

Also focus on the opinion below:

In today’s time ICAI membership only is not enough. To improve the chances of getting quick job after receiving ICAI membership following practical things is necessary to be considered:

1. More than basic understanding of accounting.
2. Good knowledge of ERP, Tally, SAP, IFRS, MIS working environment.
3. Understanding of working as a finance part.
4. Good and practical knowledge of Taxation.

My best wishes are always with you. Be humble and be successful.

All the best
