The hearing in the Hon'ble Delhi High Court has been postponed to July 27, 2007. This is the latest news from Delhi. Any way that hearing will be finished one day and I am hopeful that Icfai will once again come out as a winner. CFA Institute, USA has alrready lost the case in Virginia, USA court. Now they will loose in India too. Its only a matter of time
Yeah buddy. On 8th may, 2007 in eastern district courts of Virgina, ICFAI won against CFA Institute. That is a bumper news which is currently overshadowed by CFA Institute official ban on May 21, 2007.
Now one can use ICFAI CFA all over the world and ICFAI is planning a large media campaign to bring the true facts supported by VA court order.

Remembering CFA Institute India
CFA Institute India started giving its CFA charter in June 1991. So, we can safely say CFA institute India at the time of death was 16 years old. Just few days before its 17th birthday, CFA Institute India has to close down its operations.
In Fond Memory of
CFA INSTITUTE INDIA (FORMERLY, AIMR)
JUNE 1, 1991- MAY 21, 2007
We will miss you. We will miss the ways you charged students Rs 200000 for course fees and books to hand them CFA charter. We will miss your Full page advertisement which you carried on Feb 12, 2007 to dehonour our respectable institution ICFAI. We will miss your ways of conducting exams in posh five start hotels in India. We will miss your newly appointed secretary Mr Bala.
Remebering you always
In Grief
All CFA Institute India students who have paid their fees worth lakhs without getting CFA charter

Well for now u r not allow to give exams in India
And the bettle was started by the USA CFA...
they were the first who came up in Media with a huge Add saying that ICFAI is Fake....
I hope one would not like to join such an Unethical Institute...
we are just the student we can behave either way
but The reputated INstitute like CFA Amir coming in Media against its rival ICFAI and that Was also on False fact...
we need not to convicnce that our degree is good,,, but if someone says its Fake its bad we are bound to reply and thats Y we have no Symphty for AMIR..
Hi,
I am a new joinee to this formum and a CFA from ICFAI. I had a chance to talk to the rep once.
His opinion is as follows:
Keeping aside the AICTE issue the chances for the CFA institute to win over the Trade mark issue is very bleak. In a Judgement in the UK it is specifically said that the use of the word 'Chartered' is the privy of a University or Royal Charter/Legislation. ICFAI University Tripura is a University created by State Legislature and by legislation bound to give the CFA qualification.
Hence since there is a high probability that the judgement over Trade marks will also go the ICFAI way because Indian courts would generally follow on a decision taken in the UK.
babu...u REALLY do provide some good entertainment ! look @ Tumtum, who has projected the news in a dignified manner and look @ ur posts !
if it has escaped ur VERY LIMITED intelligence, the exams can be taken in Sri Lanka etc nearby countries...and value of the charter/exams remains the SAME as the exam is SAME , ALL over the world...what WIL chnge is that students will have to go to othr countries, spend more $$$, das all.but a few thousand rupees more is STILL worth it for CFA (AIMR).actually its worh for enthng that u passiontately want to pursue.but i think dats beond ur realm of undestanding cuz ALL dat u can do is waste time writing hate/angry/sadistic mails against ppl who have seem to have lost a career year for nof ault of their own.i dont blame u.ur just not good enough...shit happens !
and in cases liek this, there r more coutr battles etc, u cantdrive away a global Inst just liek that...worst case is i'll be giving L2 and L3 in SL or DUbai inda next 2 years...
btw...Tumtum, if i sounded rude...i am sorry...ws juss pissed wid dis all AICTE matter !
as for BABU...go get a life dood ! feel pity for u...
Ryan buddy, I did not at all feel bad and I do really understand your condition and if I were in your place, I would be visibly pissed off too.
Frankly speaking, these issues should not have much consequences for either institutes because both have established themselves in their niche areas and graduates from both institutes will get good offers based on the strength of their candidature.
This is what my experience in this industry says- if you perform well, your institute does not matter.
Hope you agree to it.
Hence since there is a high probability that the judgement over Trade marks will also go the ICFAI way because Indian courts would generally follow on a decision taken in the UK.
Do you wear raincoats when it rains in UK? If you are a logical human being, then I guess not.
Then how do you expect our judicial system to ape UK's judicial system?
Now you may be mediocre and argue that our judicial system was set-up by the Brits and so we may ape them but the Brits have reformed thei judicial system umpteen number of times and so the logic that the sales rep professes is plain bullshit.
ICFAI may win the trademark case and so may CFAI ....probability is 50-50.
You just need to realize that no sales rep is interested in your career. All he is interested in is enrolling more candidates under his name so that he gets a fatter commission that particular month.
Got the idea?
Tum Tum
There is no need to make this a test of patriotism / colonial hangover et all.
All over the world if there is a precedent is set in a court or if a point of law is proved the other courts have a bias in going by the precedent.
It is not that i am daft to believe a rep, I am just stating what is a fact.
Take it or leave it
TIMELINE: 
How the biggest mess in the education sector unfolded ruining 10,000 bright innocent careers and causing crash of 'so called' globally recognised CFA institute like a pack of cards.
Without any second thought, cancelling exams just 10 days before due date is to be considered as a serious and maximum damage to be inflicted upon any educational institution.
The following section will answer questions like:
Historic Dates:
"Trademarks and patents being legal in nature will be decided by courts and ICFAI will not take any step to disharm the future of its students and stakeholders" Excellent maturity showed by ICFAI at the time of adversity protecting student interest without taking law in their own hands.
May 18-2007: AICTE not convinced with CFA institute explanation and orders to close all the illegal operations of CFA institute with immediate effect. AICTE sends notices to respective state government to close down the offices of CFA institute with immediate effect.
May 21-2007: CFA institute starts sending panic emails to its members. CNBC, aaj tak, NDTV, TOI, ET and HT becomes interested to cover this news item.
Undoubtedly, Worlds biggest education mess. Everything crashed just 10 days before test
It is 1:13 a.m here as i am writing this controversial piece. I will be calling CFA institute HQ soon using my VOIP technology to understand and review what is the latest situation.

Without any second thought, cancelling exams just 10 days before due date is to be considered as a serious and maximum damage to be inflicted upon any educational institution.
The following section will answer questions like:
- What went wrong with CFA institute ? Why so much mass destruction has been caused?
- Who is to be blamed?Jeffrey J. Diermeier or CFA USA American counsel or CFA USA Indian lawyers based in New delhi? Or ICFAI
- Why CFA institute misunderstood the term 'technical' as mentioned by AICTE?
Historic Dates:
- Feb-12-2007: CFA Institute carried out full page Ad in ET and TOI disparaging ICFAI image. Remember, the issues were still pending in the court. Due to utter frustation, CFA institute took this act which is potrayed as the biggest mistake causing CFA institute crash in India- The fastest growing market for CFA Institute.
- Feb 14- 2007: ICFAI Replied. Very Mature and sensible reply. The Golden line:
"Trademarks and patents being legal in nature will be decided by courts and ICFAI will not take any step to disharm the future of its students and stakeholders" Excellent maturity showed by ICFAI at the time of adversity protecting student interest without taking law in their own hands.
- March-12-2007: ICFAI moved to agartala high courts locking horns with AICTE regarding allowing 'illegal operations of CFA institute to be conducted in india'. the courts directs AICTE to find out more about CFA institute and its illegal operations aand submit a report within 6 weeks
- March-14-2007: Court notices issued to HRD, Ministry of education and AICTE to take action against CFA institute illegal operations.
- March-18-2007: AICTE issue notices to CFA institute telling them to explain why the action should not be taken against CFA institute
- April 2, April 8 and April 9, 2007: CFA institute sends letter from its local association in Mumbai to explain that CFA is not a technical course.
May 18-2007: AICTE not convinced with CFA institute explanation and orders to close all the illegal operations of CFA institute with immediate effect. AICTE sends notices to respective state government to close down the offices of CFA institute with immediate effect.

My dear BABU...u really r hilarious !...kyakya mail likhta hai yaar tu ! death of CFA Inst...etc ! my question is HOW ...can u NOT understand dat the SAME exam can be taken ANYWHERE inda world...and datt he CFA Charter...will still have the SAME value as its d same exam whthr u take it in combodiaor honolulu ! so HOW exactly WILL the STUDENTS suffer? MAXXXXXX they will lose out ona year or 6 months....which really iS NOT a significant period considering ur whole career...and btw stop ur false show of sympathy to the CFAI students like me by makin hollow statements.evryone wid even an iota of intelligence knows u dont mean it ! AT LEAST be honest and say ...screw it ! am enjoying this thing !
mera toh maluum nahi...but m sure YOU r heading for a brilliant career ahead..consider writing as one of them ! ur posts r really hilarious and i MEAN it !
Genious.kundan SaysRyan, if you are really passionate about US CFA, why don't you shift to USA and complete this so called prestigious course. I know you are irritated at this moment but noone can help you. You should always remember that everything from USA is not that good. We Indians are not behind these Americans. We have already proved that in software industry and now we will give them befitting replies in other areas also. I hope you are aware that CFAI has lost the case against ICFAI in Virginia court. Now Indian CFAs can also work in USA and Canada and can proudly say that I am a CFA from ICFAI, India.
my dear GENIOUS frnd...THATS JUST WAT AM PLANNIGN TO DO NEXT YEAR !
by the way wts dis software issue??? the only reason dat the HUGE employment in software is there cuz of US companies outsourcing their work...so i wud advise u dat if u dotn wnt 2 love the US...fine but dont pass derogatory remarks at least...u could b working on sone outsourced work urslf ! and btw CFA AIMR administers the exam in 150 countruies...so HOW can thsi course be american>>>
if they were registered in honolulu, wud u say its a honolulian inst? lol...haha.but then again lookin @ ur mails, ur capable of even dat !
Hello All,
It is really sad to look you guys fight like kids. We are doing or planning to do professional courses, which comes with lot of responsibilities. Even though I am not part of ICFAI or CFAI, but still I feel that this discussion is going no where.
We were initially tense about the status of ICFAI and CFAI in India, now when the judgement is out we should take it professionally. Our moto should be to help others, and not to create a scene out of a situation.
All of us are students, and not the owners of a particular institute(although we feel attached to an institute). Kindly avoid degrading institutes and countries.
If this is a moment of Joy for ICFAI students, then on the other hand it is sad for CFAI students. The future of thousands of student is in danger, and this is a serious issue. I am not talking about those lucky fellows who can afford to go abroad just for an examination, but for those who can't afford, or those who have taken loans for their studies.
Be kind to all.

There is a great possibility that CFA exams might be rescheduled.CFA institute is considering this option seriously and it seems very practical option. If that happens, the date when CFA india June exams were conducted will go in the books as the official date creating a memorable history !
In 2040, if some body asks me why in 2007 June 2 exams were conducted- One for Globe, One for India. I have a ready made answer.

ryan_g11 Says
Not jealos Dude HAPPY should be the right word,, I am Happy for the AMIR,,,
Coz the worth of CFA will improve,, exam Abroad mean lesser students,, less students mean Less compition and higher salaries....
What U say...
Hi All!
i intend to CFA(ICFAI). but bit confused with MFA & MS(Fin).. r both really mean CFA designation??
Is it advisable to go for CFA thro MFA??
Hope someone will reply me!!!
If you can do Ms finance then It is better
and if you can do CFA Then that is better
they both are the same thing,, If you are doing Ms finance then you are also going for CFA,,
ICFAI has three level for MS finance,,
after clearing Ist level you will be given DBF(Diploma in Business Finance)
After Clearing the second level you are granted the CFA charter,, and after clearing the All three level you will be provided MS finance degree
hope it is clear :)
Likewise cud u plz tell me abt CFA thro MFA???
Well Both lead to CFA charter,, MFA is totally imphasis on Investment and Equties
where as Ms Finance is overall Finance course,,
MFA is eaiser then MS Finance.
So if you want to go in the feild of Equity Research Then MFA is better and easy as i said
Other wise Ms Finance is better and wider then MFA,,
