Hi Kaustubh,
CFP is a good career alternative for those who want to make a career in " Personal Finance" domain.
Many Banks, AMCs, Insurance Companies, Wealth Management Companies, Broking Firms etc are looking for qualified CFPs. So, the scope & potential in this stream is immense. Moreover there are 23 countries (read: - USA, UK, Australia, NZ, Canada, Singapore etc) where your qualification gets recognized. If you want to practice or work in any of these countries, then all you've to do is give a "Cross Border Exam" & meet the country specific requirements (if any), thus giving you the required global reach.
On the other hand, if you are looking to make a career in "Securities & Trading", then take up the "Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA)" designation from CFAI, USA. The CFA qualification will give you a better reach & platform to make a career in Securities & Trading.
So, before you jump into the fray, ask yourself your area of interest, inquire with people & institutions about the role played by both of them (i.e. CFP & CFA) & take a call accordingly.
All the Best

Collecting degree is not enough u must have practically sound also. First of all i would like tu suggest u that whatever u r doing do it thoroughly. Clear ur fundamental concepts. It should not be like that making second floor without any foundations. Industry requires Technically sound professionals not the theoretical persons. Instead of collecting degree take any International Certifications with u in less amount of time which helps u more. Lots of career lines are there in IT industry as well. System Admin, Network Admin, Security Admin, Database Admin, Software Developer, Web Developer and many more. Most of the Servers are running on Linux Servers. If u choose Linux platform as ur career option will be the futuristic approach. RHCE, RHCSS, RHCEV, JBOSS, LAMP, WAMP, XAMP CCNA, MCSE, JCP, OCP are some of the Leading Specialization areas where u can get some International kind of quality Certification. Don't u think that after getting Technically qualified Certification u will get high salaried technical JOB?
