President Droupadi Murmu said that more women are becoming chartered accountants and expressed hope that they will account for 50 per cent of the total practicing chartered accountants by 2047.
Speaking at a function to mark the 75th year of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), she also said that efforts should be made to ensure that the chartered accountancy profession becomes a “pillar of economic governance”. The ICAI, the apex body of chartered accountants, has nearly 4 lakh members and more than 8 lakh students.
