Yes, ca is self sufficient, but still there is no harm in getting another PG degree (provided u make sure that it don't interefere too much in ur ca schedule).
Although technically CA is much more than a PG still i am too planning to have a pure PG degree like M.com/MBA (first reason simply to fulfill my desire of PG and most prominent reason is to apply for some govt. posts where PG is requirement and ca dont fulfill that). If u dont want to make it too hectic and just want it for namesake then even distance one would be sufficient and better. In my opinion Distance MBA can be slightly better than MCOM.
However if u dont have any specific reason for going for PG then u can prefer cs/cwa in addition to ca

Hi Monika
Whatever the course you take please ensure that it does add some value in the career.
There are many courses in the market, what you need to decide is that how the Mcom course
will help you in your career as you are on the edge of completing CA.
Time is precious. By spending 2 yrs for M.COM or any other course if you think its going to add the
value in your career then proceed, I suggest you to do some research before going for M.com.
"Dont reach the spot where you have 2 Diversions, one road is M.com & Other road being CA."
Hope you understand.
CA is a Professional & Superior degree to M.com. So kindly check any such equivalent degree
which adds value to your career.
Alternatively ICWA is good option , you may also get some exemption on the subjects i guess.
Other views solcitied.
regards

friend u have to decide what u have to do now.. MBA is also good option.. if you want to continue study then go for MBA from good B school.. if u want to do job then do M.COM. in my opinion MBA + CA is good combination.. u have done CA it means u have gathered so much knowledge, so dont opt for CWA & CS, because same thing u have to study again more or less.

No need to do M.Com.But if you want to do any P.HD in future yo should possess master's degree.So if you have any intention like that do M.Com.Otherwise it will not make any value addition.
