| PAWAN K KAUSHIK | Member | SURATHKAL | In the current professional landscape, the authority to conduct tax audits is exclusively reserved for Chartered Accountants (CAs). This restriction significantly limits the role and opportunities for Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs), making it challenging for us to establish a competitive and impactful presence in the industry. CMAs are equipped with comprehensive knowledge and expertise in financial analysis, cost management, and regulatory compliance, making us equally capable of conducting tax audits with precision and integrity. However, the existing legal framework does not recognize our potential, leading to an imbalance that hinders professional growth and limits the available pool of qualified auditors. To promote fair competition, enhance the quality of audits, and fully utilize the skills of CMAs, we kindly urge you to consider amending the provisions of the New Income Tax Act, 2025, to include CMAs in the definition and scope of authorized tax auditors. This inclusion would not only empower CMAs but also contribute to strengthening the nation’s financial regulatory framework. We sincerely hope our request is considered favorably, as it reflects the aspirations of many qualified professionals eager to contribute more effectively to the economy. |

| SEED J JAGUWALA | Student | Ankleshwar / Gujarat | As per the current challenging environment where the privilege of tax audit is given to CA only , the scope for AACA is very narrow and it's very difficult for us to stand and take a front position when a CA is overshadowing our profession . So, it's a humble request to include ACCA in the definition of New Income Tax Act, 2025. And please give same support to ACCA as given to the CA |

| Pratik Dahivalikar | Student | Neral, Maharashtra | The demand for granting Income Tax audit rights to CMAs is a significant step toward recognizing their expertise in financial management, taxation, and auditing. CMAs possess in-depth knowledge of cost and management accounting, making them well-equipped to handle tax audits efficiently. Granting them such rights would not only enhance the profession’s scope but also improve tax compliance and transparency by utilizing their analytical and cost-control skills. It would also bring parity among finance professionals and reduce dependency on a single profession for tax audits. However, regulatory challenges and opposition from other accounting bodies must be addressed for successful implementation. | 22 Feb 2025, 05:14 PM |
