The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICMAI) has introduced a fee waiver initiative benefiting students in the North East States and Jammu & Kashmir. As per two official notifications released on September 1st and 21st, 2023, female students are eligible for a complete 100% fee waiver, while their male counterparts will receive a substantial 75% fee reduction. This proactive measure by ICMAI aims to promote inclusivity and equal access to education, addressing specific regional considerations.
The notification reference no.:G/128/09(1)/2023 states follows:
“The Council at its 348th Meeting held on 27th and 28th August, 2023 has granted 75% fees waiver for the male students and 100% fees waiver for the female students of Jammu and Kashmir taking admissions in the CMA Course (Foundation, Intermediate and Final levels). This is in partial modification to the previous scheme, wherein the 100% fees waiver was applicable to the first 200 students, while a 50% fees waiver was extended to all other students from Kashmir taking admission in the CMA Course (Foundation and Intermediate levels).
This scheme aims to promote the CMA Course widely and to actively participate in the nation building mission of the Government with the goal to reach the unreached. The fees waiver scheme shall continue until further notification in this regard by the Institute.”
