The Institute of Cost Accountants of India - Kolkata

Ok

tried calling many times.. while calling on contact number of this place it doesn't feel like a professional institute headquarter.. need to work on tele-communication as not everyone has luxury of living in big cities and visiting the ICAI offices..

This is the main institute of The institute of cost and management accountant .mainly the admission process is done here not the tranning centre .there is one another office for the training purposes the students who have to take the book or mat should also contact here .

If you looking for a professional degree opt for CA instead of CMA, Do not expect help from CMA institute's council member after getting passed. Even they do not provide practical training which is must required for a professional person. Their Standard of Campus Placement is extremely poor. Being a CMA I have no regret of sharing this. CA is far better than CMA. I do not know about other region. but service of eastern region is extremely pathetic.

VERY WELCOMING PERSONS. HELPED ME AND MOTIVATED ME TO TAKE THE DECISION.

The Institute of Cost Accountants of India would be the preferred source of resources and professionals for the financial leadership of enterprises globally." Mission Statement "The Cost and Management Accountant professionals would ethically drive enterprises globally by creating value to stakeholders in the socio-economic context through competencies drawn from the integration of strategy, management and accounting." It was during the early years of World War II, that the concept of cost as an independent entity made its beginning in the industrial circles of the world. Due to the prohibitive cost of defense operations, the then governments at war found it difficult to ascertain the price of defence purchases and thus evolved the concept of cost + contracts. This forced the contractors to submit the cost of the work to be undertaken by them, in order to be awarded the contract. 1945 brought the end of the war, and the nations ravaged by the effects of war began large-scale reconstruction of their economies through industrialisation. The end of colonialism meant that many nations gained their independence, and this process increased rapidly. The late forties and fifties can really be termed the golden era of industrialisation. The importance of cost accounting as being central to the formation of government policies provided the foundation of the rapid growth of the profession. What began as a mere exercise in estimating the cost later developed into a movement for efficiency and optimum utilisation of scarce resources. The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (erstwhile The Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India) was first established in 1944 as a registered company under the Companies Act with the objects of promoting, regulating and developing the profession of Cost Accountancy. On 28th May, 1959, the Institute was established by a special act of Parliament, namely, the Cost and Works Accountants Act, 1959 as a statutory professional body for the regulation of the profession of cost and management accountancy. It has since been continuously contributing to the growth of the industrial and economic climate of the country. The Institute of Cost Accountants of India is the only recognised statutory professional organisation and licensing body in India specialising exclusively in Cost and Management Accountancy. A Cost Accountant is a person who offers to perform or perform services involving the costing or pricing of goods and services or the preparation, verification or certification of cost accounting and related statements. The head office is situated at 12, Sudder Street, Kolkata 700 016 and operates through four regional councils are Kolkata, Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai as well as through a number of important chapters situated elsewhere in India and abroad.
