| CMA Lalitha Deepak | Member | Pune | CMA's are professionals who deep dive into the financial statement and can definitely handle tax audits in an efficient way. | 20 Feb 2025, 07:00 PM |
| Akanksha priya | Student | Ranchi | I as a cma student want to tell that cma are as capable as CA . We can also do the work of Chartered accountant but unfortunately we do not get as much rights as CA got. If we did not get opportunities to showcase what we can do then it will we unfair for us. So we also deserve a fair chance to utilize our skills. Hence I support the cause and I want that cost accountant should be included in the definition of accountant then only we will get recognition and we could also contribute towards managing economy of our country. | 20 Feb 2025, 07:00 PM |

| Krishnan | Others | New delhi | Taxation is not a prerogative of any individual or institution. All those who have studied the subject in depth are eligible to execute the same. It's high time the present government corrects this . ICAI has monopolied this as if they are the custodians of the taxation of India. During the demonetisation professional CAs have played their role in a manner which is not appreciable from any points of view | 20 Feb 2025, 06:58 PM |

| Gadde Charitha | Member | VIJAYAWADA | Support inclusion of Cost Accountant in the Income Tax Bill 2025 . As a CMA, I urge the inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants in the definition of "Accountant" in the Income Tax Bill 2025. CMAs possess expertise in tax law and compliance, and our recognition would enhance service quality, promote competition, and strengthen the tax system. I encourage policymakers to address this omission and acknowledge our professional contributions. |

| Arijit Panda | Student | Jajpur | DURING MY Practical Training I worked with all Professionals Including CMA,CA,CS. As a CMA Student I can say, It is immatuare to not include CMA in the definition of Accountant. Cost Accountants are working in the top positions of Finance and Taxation department of PSUs and Corporates and are responsible for the financials of the organization, they are proved to be successful to handle such a big role. Only excluding them from the definition of “Accountant” doesn’t justify while they are at the helm of the affairs of PSUs and Corporates and handling the huge responsibilities of Finance, Accounts and Taxation department. |

Not including of cost accountants in definition of accountant in new bill it shows that Government ignorance for the Cost accountants, as a Professional student it feels insult and disrespect for the institute.

| Saksham Paldecha | Student | Jaipur | The inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) in the definition of "Accountant" under the Income Tax Act in India expands the scope of professionals authorized to certify financial statements and provide tax-related services. This move recognizes the expertise of CMAs in cost management, financial planning, and tax compliance, aligning with the evolving needs of the business environment. It promotes healthy competition among accounting professionals, potentially enhancing service quality. | 20 Feb 2025, 06:53 PM |

So it is my kind request to the Parliament to do look over in this matter & provide us with the needed justice. | 20 Feb 2025, 06:47 PM |

| Atharva kate | Student | AURANGABAD | To The Hon’ble Members of the Indian Parliament, **Subject:** Petition for Inclusion of *Cost Accountants* in the Definition of *"Accountants"* under Section 515(3)(b) of the Proposed Income Tax Act, 2025 Respected Members, We, on behalf of the *All India Cost and Management Accountants Association (AICMAA)*, earnestly urge the Hon’ble Parliament to recognize the invaluable role of *Cost Accountants* in India’s financial and tax ecosystem by including them in the definition of *“Accountants”* as per Section 515(3)(b) of the proposed *Income Tax Act, 2025*. Cost Accountants, governed by the *Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICAI-CMA)*, play a pivotal role in financial reporting, cost management, taxation, and compliance. Excluding Cost Accountants from the definition of *“Accountants”* in the new Income Tax framework would not only undermine their professional expertise but also hinder the broader objective of a more transparent and efficient tax administration. We strongly believe that the recognition of Cost Accountants in this capacity will: 1. **Strengthen Tax Governance** – By leveraging their expertise in cost audits, compliance, and tax assessments. 2. **Enhance Economic Efficiency** – By ensuring accurate cost reporting and financial prudence in taxation. 3. **Support Ease of Doing Business** – By expanding the availability of qualified professionals for businesses and taxpayers. We urge the Hon’ble Members of Parliament to give due consideration to this rightful demand and ensure that Cost Accountants are granted equal recognition alongside Chartered Accountants under the proposed Income Tax Act, 2025. We sincerely hope that our appeal will be taken up with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. |
