Hi Ragu,
Both Chartered Accountant and Cost accountant are very much vital for firms of all sectors.
While a Chartered accountant deals with the chief financial work within an organization, a ICWAI candidate is concerned with the cost accounting part of pecuniary transactions.
Even as a Chartered accountant analyzes the risk and designs an efficient financial system, a cost accountant designs methods for the control of cost methods inside a firm.
If you seek for an independent job such as professional accounting, CA will be better suited as the opportunities to practice privately are more in that profession.
CAs work includes maintaining accounts in a firm, Accountancy, Auditing, Taxation, Investigation and Consultancy. Accounting and Financing are integral part of any business establishment, whether it is public sector or private sector. CAs are therefore highly in demand because of their capability to provide complete business solution. A career in Chartered Accountancy is much sought after because they possess the knowledge of identifying risks and designing control mechanism to counter those risks.
