Woman to head city ICAI branch

Aurangabad: City-based chartered accountant Renuka Deshpande has taken over as chairperson of the Aurangabad branch of western India regional council (WIRC) of Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. Deshpande is the first woman chairperson in 30 years since the branch was established on June 17, 1986.

She will head the branch for one year.

Speaking to mediapersons, Deshpande elaborated on the plans she has lined for to increase the number of women in the profession.

"Chartered accountancy is one of the most challenging professions for modern women today, but unfortunately, their numbers, when compared to men, are quite low. I will give special attention to organising seminars and interactive sessions for girl students and motivate them to take up chartered accountancy as a career," she said.

There are 130 women as against 400 men registered with the Aurangabad branch.

"Although the number of women seeking to get into the profession has taken a big leap over the past couple of years, only 22% of the CAs in the field are women. But the scenario is rapidly changing as about 40% to the total students pursuing CA are girls," she said.

Speaking about how the recent 'Make In India' campaign has opened up new opportunities for chartered accountants, Deshpande said, "India will need many chartered accountants as foreign investment is happening. We will take this message to students studying in various schools in all four districts under the Aurangabad branch."

The branch has decided to organise special events to mark International Women's Day on March 8. "Various activities will also be held for the development of members and students. On the social front, the branch will create awareness among stake holders on taxation and other financial matters. A special session on the union budget will also be held on March 5," she said.
