| CMA Manas Patra | Member | Bhubaneswar, Odisha | I strongly urge the Government to recognize and include Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) in the definition of ‘accountant’ under the proposed Income Tax Act, 2025. CMAs are highly qualified professionals specializing in cost audit, financial management, and taxation, playing a crucial role in corporate governance and compliance. The exclusion of CMAs from this definition not only limits the expertise available to taxpayers but also contradicts the government's vision of strengthening financial transparency and efficiency. Given their rigorous training in taxation, costing, and financial analysi, CMAs are well-equipped to provide tax-related services, ensuring better compliance and reducing tax evasion. Recognizing CMAs under the new Income Tax Act will enhance taxpayer support, promote fair competition among financial professionals, and align with global best practices. I request the authorities to reconsider this decision and ensure that CMAs receive due recognition in tax laws. |

| Ashwini Mourya | Student | Mumbai | Subject: Inclusion of ICMAI Members in the Definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act Respected Authorities, I am writing to express my strong support for the inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) in the definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act and other relevant financial regulations. The exclusion of ICMAI members from this definition undermines the rigorous academic and professional training that CMAs undergo. CMAs are equipped with extensive knowledge in financial management, taxation, cost accounting, and auditing—skills that are essential for financial reporting and compliance. Our curriculum is aligned with international standards, ensuring that we possess expertise comparable to other accounting professionals who are currently recognized under the Act. Despite this, the continued exclusion of CMAs creates an unnecessary professional barrier and contradicts the vision of global recognition and equal opportunities that regulatory bodies aim to promote. To truly support the development of the CMA profession and elevate it to a global level, it is imperative that ICMAI members receive fair and equal recognition. We request the authorities to address this disparity and amend the law to include CMAs in the definition of "Accountant," thereby ensuring that qualified professionals are not deprived of opportunities based on institutional bias. We trust that this concern will be given due consideration in the interest of fairness, professional growth, and economic progress. Sincerely, |

| Thoufic Raja | Member | Tiruchirapalli | The Committee observe that the Ministry‟s reasoning for non- inclusion of related professionals in the definition of accountant is a very strict construction of the term. In the view of the Committee, the suggested amendment may provide the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) a wider and cost effective scope for selection of professionals and will be an important initiative towards simplified tax compliance regime. The Ministry may therefore re-consider the suggestion to widen the scope of the definition of “accountant” |

The Cost Accountants are equally equipped with professionalism and capabilities to take up the assignments with ease given a chance. With the recognition of the cost accountants in Indirect Taxes portfolio and recognising for certifying the cost records and stock valuation by the esteemed Direct Taxes department, we the cost accountants expect reasonable level play with the co professional institute Chartered Accountancy with similar course and curriculam and internship structure.
