What are the career & job prospects in India and abroad for ACCA?

ACCA has the same career prospects as a CA in India. You can practice accounting in any company you wish. You can join consulting companies like Deloitte and PwC, or any other company. A starting salary of 4 LPA is what you can expect initially. The best thing about ACCA is you can get a good number of opportunities abroad whereas CA doesn’t have as many opportunities abroad. Again the problem with ACCA is, in India companies prefer a CA because they are well acquainted with accounting practices followed in India and are familiar with local laws. But, that doesn’t mean that ACCA has no opportunity. Start your career, work hard, you will become successful. In field of accounting the people with skill and knowledge are valued more. Be good in your field, it would not matter if ACCA or CA.
