As for CPA eligibility, you need 120 credits to appear for CPA exam and 150 credits for CPA license. General rule: Every year of university education in India is equivalent to 30-semester credits of US education. Some state boards award credit for international professional qualifications like CA. For international CPA candidates from India, generally 3-year commerce graduates from NAAC A universities who have scored a 1 st division are awarded 120 credits.

Both accountants are considered equally well versed with IFRS (widely used in Europe). Another major comparison point is the number of exams, while ACCA has up to 16 subjective style exams, CPA only has 4 objective style exams.

You should try the US CPA professional qualification, because it is a short duration course with just 4 exams, which can be completed in less than a year's time. Here's a list of benefits:
- Global recognition
- You get to master both, US GAAP and IFRS
- Vibrant career opportunities
- Option to upskill
- Be a global accountant.
