MBA/Masters Needed to Become a CA in India? [#permalink] New post 18 Sep 2010, 04:05
Hi,

I'm an American looking at going back to India, and I was wondering if one needs to go to an MBA/Masters to sit for the CA exam in India. Actually, I was wondering what the process is in general and whether its possible for NRIs to sit for the CA even? I heard that the CA exam is EXTREMELY tough and I know that accounting is slightly different in India vs the US, so I was wondering, for someone in my situation that is an NRI looking to become a CA, what would be the best way to go about doing this? Otherwise, would having a CPA be beneficial at all for Indian companies?

PS: I realize this might be the incorrect forum to place this, so if someone can put this in the right forum, if this one is inappropriate, that would be great.

Thanks all!

Hey

I am not a CA myself, but know plenty of CAs in the family to tell you that you dont need a masters nor do you need an MBA for a CA qualification in India. I do know that now it is even possible to go through the CA process without even a bachelor's degree; you need to sit through an articleship process.

The best place to seek information would be the CA institute, particularly regarding anything special about being an NRI applicant.
