Accounting & Commerce

Hi,
There are plenty of professional courses available for commerce students to choose from. For commerce students, one of the easiest things to do is go for B.Com then M.Com and then maybe Ph.D or professor. There's also an option to go for CA CS CMA and at times LLB. The mainstay of commerce students for years now. One also has the option of lesser-known courses like FRM, CFA, CPA and actuary among others. There are various certification courses conducted by many institutions across the country like certified risk management, courses on the stock market by NSE/BSE, etc. MBA is a post-graduation option open to all. There's an option to go for government jobs and preparing for that. Finally, one has the option of growing and working upon there passion and then go on with it as a full-time career. With your interest in accountancy, you can go for CA, CMA, etc. Choose wisely.
All the best.

Hi,
Yes, it is. CS has become very lucrative and remunerative and with the implementation of the Companies Act 2013. The scope has widened for a company secretary as a professional. A company secretary can do practice, or get appointed as a key managerial person. A company secretary is also known as compliance manager as he/she is the one with an overall and all-round knowledge of various laws applicable in the industries. So, it is noteworthy that along with the enhancement in scope, work and remuneration wise, responsibility and accountability is also increased. The salary package depends on your skills, knowledge and practical exposure and further increments depend on your skills and the organisation where you are working.
All the best. Feel free to revert.

Hi,
First of all, decide whether your interest is more theoretical oriented or practical oriented. CA is the one who specialises in taxation, auditing and accounting, a majority of the subjects are practical. Company Secretary is a specialist of law, drafting and compliances. A majority of the subjects are theoretical. There's no such thing as easy or hard. Both are almost at the equal level and require the same level of hard work and understanding. Seeing working prospects wise, CA is much more recognised course among the masses and can start his own practice with ease, that's not the case with CS. However, with the companies act 2013 the job prospects of CS enhanced tremendously as compared to CA. Decide wisely.
Feel free to ask further.
All the best.
