IPCC

Hi!!!!!!!   Pattabhi Ram's Book is Gud for concept.........  for practical go for MAFA by A. N. SRIDHAR of SHROFF Publication.......  ALL THE BEST!!!!!!!

YOUR QUESTIONS HAS BEEN WRONGLY POSTED. HERE IS MY REPLY FOR PRANAY- I THINK COURSE IS NOT DIFFERENT BUT SEE IN IPCC THERE WILL BE 7 PAPERS BECASUE ACCOUTNTING IN PART I OF PCC HAS BEEN DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS.

FURTHER TILL PASSING THE FIRST GROUP OF IPCC THERE WILL BE NO ARTICLESHIP SO STUDENT WILL GET SOME MORE MATURITY .

Hi PRANAY....!!!!!  I think IPCC is better than PCC coz after IPCC u ll be well equiped wit    AUDIT   N     TAX       which is necessary for articleship!!!!!!! 

Both have its own advantages and disadvantages.

IPCC is a good course if you can clear the first group in time or your final attempt will be delayed.

 if both groups exams are taken separately will the  final attempt will lag??
