| Rehnuma | Student | Lucknow | To develop our nation, it is highly necessary to expand professional work like tax audit. CMAs are highly qualified to perform tax audit. CMAs are enough capable to handle audits. | 22 Feb 2025, 04:36 PM |
| Sandesh Gaikwad | Others | MAHARASHTRA | Since both the institutes have almost same curriculum in filed of taxation.It is essential to recognise CMA in definition of “Accountants” under section 515(3)(b) to have a healthy competition between institutes which will be a value addition to our country. | 22 Feb 2025, 04:36 PM |

| Rahul Shaw | Others | Kolkata | Respected Finance Minister As a qualified Cost and Management Accountant (CMA), I would like to bring to your kind attention the need for broader recognition of CMAs in matters of taxation. CMAs possess in-depth knowledge of both direct and indirect taxes, along with expertise in cost and financial management. However, under the current Income Tax Act, the definition of an "Accountant" is restrictive, limiting the authority to a single professional body. In the interest of fostering fair competition and leveraging the specialized skill set of CMAs in taxation and financial compliance, I sincerely request your esteemed office to consider amending the definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act to include CMAs. This step will not only enhance the efficiency of tax compliance but also contribute to a more inclusive professional framework in the financial domain. I would be grateful if you could take this matter into consideration. Thank you for your time and attention. |

| Bablu Poddar | Student | Asansol, West Bengal | As per the current challenging environment where the privilege of tax audit is given to CA only , the scope for CMA 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 CMA in the definition of New Income Tax Act, 2025 | 22 Feb 2025, 04:22 PM |

| Purty Bansal | Member | Ghaziabad | Some significant corporate cases in India where cost accountants played a crucial role in pointing out tax evasion include: 1. **The Satyam Scandal (2009)**: Cost accountants were involved in uncovering discrepancies in the company’s financial reporting, including false expense claims, leading to the exposure of financial fraud. 2. **Nirav Modi-PNB Scam (2018)**: Cost accountants flagged discrepancies in the cost allocations and financial transactions related to letters of credit, which ultimately contributed to identifying the massive banking fraud. These cases underscore the role of cost accountants in identifying irregularities in financial reporting, cost misallocation, and tax evasion. |
