It is very much recognized, and as the gurus here say is the best qualification a finance aspirant can pursue. Well this is what I meant in my previous post. Sorry!! if my intention wasn't evident in my sarcasm.

14 September 2007

As you know, by order of the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), we are currently prohibited from operating the CFA Program in India. We filed a writ petition with the Delhi High Court to resume operation of the CFA Program in India and final arguments began on 6 September 2007. We learned today that arguments will continue on Wednesday, 19 September. As you may know, the final deadline to register for the December 2007 Level I CFA exam is Monday, 17 September.

Because we are in day-to-day proceedings before the Delhi High Court, and we hope for a decision from the court before the end of September, CFA Institute is indefinitely extending the registration period for the December 2007 exam. If the Delhi High Court permits CFA Institute to resume operation of the CFA Program, we will open registration to candidates in India.

If there is no decision by 1 October, on that date CFA Institute will make a further announcement regarding the deadline for the December 2007 exam. As before, we continue to work toward a resolution of this difficult situation, and we appreciate your patience and understanding. Please continue to check this site for updates.


Puys,

We have something to cheer about at least for the time being and to keep our hopes alive.

Regards,
RKA

Its amazing how CFAI handles these matters so professionally. High time the Indian institutes learn something from such world class instis! Come what may, the candidate interest is at the forefront.

Cheers!

yup i very much agree with u... they r ready to postpone it indefinitely for indians, even if it leaves them with a very short time to arrange things here for the exam... student interest tops the list of priorities... it is this kind of service makes us forget the huge fees (well huge for us indians) with ease. Long live CFAI.

Ya, look at last June when things were just going out of hand. CFAI ensured that its Indian candidates took the exam after so much toil and hard work. They arranged for centers in other countries, constantly communicating and making the candidate's life easier. And finally made it possible to conduct the exam in India itself.....no mean achievement considering the slow legal procedure and Babuism widespread in our country!

Cheers!
