Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is the US equivalent of Indian CA. Certified Management Accountant (CMA) is the US equivalent of Indian CMA.
 
In his inaugural speech, Varun Jain, CPA, CMA, National Instructor and Founder, Miles Professional Education spoke about the limitations of the Indian CA degree. 
 
He said, “The Indian certificates is limited to a geographical boundary, it might not work in the USA or Europe. The US CPA and CMA are much more credible.”

CMA exams can be given from one’s respective cities.
 
The cost for CMA is approximately INR 1, 00, 000 and INR 3, 00, 000 for CPA for a year.
