which course id better

No doubt, its CA

Of Course its CA..

 CA

In both the courses hard work is same but

Finally the CA is better then CWA

C.A. no doubt about it

yet a combination would give u an edge over others, provided u can manage it.

All d best.

 No doubt CA oly.

CA with CWA & CS is the best.( If one wants too...)

But if a normal person wants to do single course, OPT CA .

Think before you start. CA is  a good option but not as lucrative as propagated by ICAI (at least for the time being). See posting of the Chartered Accountants in this forum and also discuss with the fresh Chartered Accountants. Many have not got any job after qualifying. CS is also having almost same footing as CA (though in job they are slidely better poised than their CA counter part as the demand supply gap is still there). ICWA is a great course but has been deprived by Govt. for long ( courtesy ICAI lobby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). But now it seems that they have started getting new recognitions.

All the courses are good and it is on your personal preference and area of interest (because you can not compare apple with orrange). If you have patience and faith on your profession you will get equall success by doing any course. The ways are different but the destination is same.

prodyut is absolutely right

just from the last year there is larger demand for cwa's as compared to ca in campus placements

ca's are not placed for high salary now a days and olny 10percent are placed out of total candidates appeared

just 3 lacs is the average package( u can ask all those who have just been placed)

while cwa placements's average package is now a days 4.5 lacs to 6 lacs

well iam pursuing both but i feel at the end of 2010 CA profession will be back to its recognition of getting higher packages in campus( 8.5 lacs average at start of 2008)

ofcourse CA

The highest package offered to fresh CAs (3 in numbers ) is 22 LPA INR.

Read the President's message..

The highest pay packet recd by 2-3 people doesnt represent the entire population of fresh CAs....so no use highlighting the Highest Package. Look at the Avg Salary recd by all the new Passouts...
