By including more than one professional body the monopoly is avoided and better interpretation of act can be done. By including cost accountant professional in tax audit helps in reducing tax evasion and better environment can be made in tax compliance. | 19 Feb 2025, 11:24 PM |

| Harshit D Thaker | Member | Ahmedabad | Supporting the Inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) in the Definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act I strongly advocate for the inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) in the definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act. Ensuring equal recognition for CMAs alongside Chartered Accountants (CAs) will enhance efficiency, fairness, and accessibility in financial and tax-related matters. Rationale for Inclusion Professional Competence and Expertise CMAs, governed by the Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICAI – CMA), possess extensive knowledge in taxation, accounting, and financial compliance. Their expertise makes them well-qualified to fulfill the responsibilities of an "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act. Parity with CMAs and CAs Major audit functions in India are already divided among professional bodies based on their expertise: Company Secretaries (CSs) conduct Secretarial Audits Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) conduct Cost Audits Chartered Accountants (CAs) conduct Statutory Audits Given this structured division, it is only fair that Income Tax Audits and other tax-related functions recognize CMAs and CAs at par, ensuring a broader talent pool and increased efficiency in tax compliance. Enhancing Tax Compliance and Efficiency Including CMAs in the definition of "Accountant" will strengthen the tax compliance framework, ensuring businesses and taxpayers benefit from a wider range of skilled professionals for tax certifications and audits. Aligning with Global Best Practices Many countries recognize Cost and Management Accountants as tax professionals. Aligning India's tax laws with international standards will fortify the professional ecosystem and support India’s vision of becoming a global financial hub. By recognizing CMAs under the Income Tax Act, India can ensure a more inclusive, efficient, and globally competitive taxation framework while utilizing the expertise of CMAs and CAs in tax-related matters. |

| Purushottam Deshmukh | Member | Pune Maharashtra | CMA should compulsorily be treated or considered as an Accountant in New Income Tax Act 2025. Because the syllabus of CMA and CA is almost 80 to 90% same in various accounting, taxation, law, business valuation, business communication, etc subject. Also in Industry both are considered equivalent for many job roles. Hence, I vote to include CMA in the definition of Accountant. | 19 Feb 2025, 11:12 PM |

CMAs are highly qualified in taxation, cost audit, and financial compliance, yet denied tax audit rights. This creates a monopoly and restricts businesses from choosing the best professionals. We demand immediate inclusion of CMAs in the definition of "Accountant" to ensure fairness, professional equality, and better compliance.
