The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) is a statutory body that was set up to regulate the profession of chartered accountants. The responsibilities of conducting the Chartered Accountancy Course as well granting licence to candidates after successful completion of the course, by way of granting membership to the institute, are both vested with ICAI. ENTRY The major fields in Chartered Accountancy are: Accountancy: Includes basic writing of accounts, maintaining books, financial statements, receipts, vouchers as required by the Companies Act. Auditing: The purpose of auditing is to satisfy the users of financial statements that the accounts presented to them are drawn up on correct accounting principles. CAs perform financial, cost and tax audits and some part of secretarial audits. Cost Accountancy: CAs are trained at maintaining cost auditing records, compiling cost information, installing cost controls and even performing cost audits. Taxation: CAs who deal in taxation deal with direct taxes that are collected by the government directly. These include income tax and wealth tax. They provide advice both on direct and indirect taxes like sales tax and excise duty. The CA has to keep himself updated about the current rate of taxes and all other tax information. Investigation: Since CAs have the knowledge on all financial matters they are the best authority in finding out how people have used or misused laws or even ed. These can be matters relating to shares, sales or financing business, reconstruction, amalgamation etc. Consulting: Most CAs aspire to work as consultants, which basically involves corporate law advice, project planning and finance, management accounting and internal advice, business advice, systems design and information consultancy.
