| SIDHESWAR DIXIT | Member | Bhubaneswar, Odisha | We, the undersigned, respectfully petition for the inclusion of Cost and Management Accountants (CMAs) as "Accountants" under the provisions of the Income Tax Bill 2025. CMAs play an indispensable role in ensuring accurate financial reporting, cost management, and strategic decision-making within organizations. They are highly skilled professionals, trained in accounting, auditing, and financial management, who contribute significantly to the financial health and transparency of businesses and the economy at large. CMAs bring value to the nation through their expertise in controlling costs, improving efficiency, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Their involvement in financial planning, budgeting, and taxation ensures that businesses adhere to best practices while maximizing profitability and sustainability. By acknowledging CMAs as accountants in the Income Tax Bill, the government would recognize their critical role in supporting the nation’s economic growth and fiscal discipline. This inclusion will also empower CMAs to take a more prominent role in tax-related matters, reinforcing the nation’s efforts towards a transparent and accountable taxation system. Recognizing CMAs will not only enhance their professional stature but will further strengthen the foundation of responsible financial governance across India. We urge the lawmakers to take this petition into serious consideration for the advancement of the profession and the nation’s economic progress. Sincerely, Sidheswar Dixit |
