Value of cia in india

876 views 4 replies

I am a CA final Student giving my 4th attempt. I am not sure as to clearing my exams and planning to drop it for personal reasons.

I am working as an accountant, and have worked in taxation in my articleship days. But lately I am finding accounting as boring and monotonous and the same goes with taxation.

I have been thinking of entering audit field, so i would like to know whether CIA helps in audit career in India? Is CIA difficult as comapred to CA? Also, will working in a CA firm be beneficial for my career or should i go into internal audit of some company? Also, are there any other courses (except CA) which will be beneficial?

Hi,

 

CIA has excellenet opportunities considering the next decade to be dominated by risk and corporate governance. 

You may think of working in some good internal audit frms initially and then decide to take up CIA exams,

You first have to work and then decide if this is the field which you want to specialise in, Else directly taking up CIA exams would be of no use if you do not like being an Internal Auditor. 

You may get in toucb with me for detailed suggestions. 

 

Thank you so much for your valuable advice kalpesh ji

To enter in a managerial position in any Indian corporate, CA/CWA/CS is the minimum required qualification. CIA / CISA etc. are just certifications, they don't have any independent recognition in India. 

Better try to concentrate on clearing your CA Final Exam, at any cost.
