| Dilip T S | Student | Bengaluru/Karnataka | CMAs are experts in Management Accounting and Cost Audit. They are also involved in corporate strategy, business finance and operations planning, besides decision support. To play these roles to their efficiency, CMAs are required to be well equipped to factor in the tax and legal implications of financial transactions. This calls for a thorough understanding of local tax and corporate laws. Hence, CMAs deserve to be defined as 'Accountant' in the Direct Tax Code, 2025 GST and Customs Laws recognize CMA's expertise. Then why not in Direct Taxes? |
