Thanks a lot for you recommendations and contribution.
Well, copying material from the books of others, specially from foreign writers, is very common among over literary class.
You are right that research in Accounts, even in economics, do not required huge sum of money as compare to natural and applied sciences. Although we cannot say that the sum of money required for research in accounts requires allocation of funds in million but some thousands rupees are obviously required. I have estimated if you want to become specialist in Taxation only you have to purchase books costing about more than 20,000/- . Although internet has made easy the research work but many books are not available on internet. In the situation where many CA and ICMA finalists even do not have set of IFRS how you can expect research work from them. I have seen many students and member of the forum wondering here and there in search of soft copy of IFRS/IAS, although complete set of IFRS+IAS is available at concessionary rate for the students and members of ICMAP and ICAP in all the centers of ICAP for Rs. 1000/- only.
As far as your view is concerned "You need to be very close to the management of ICMAP to get your article published" I am disagree with you. I know about some senior students whose articles published in the Management Accountants. I have also sent some of my article for publishing in Management Accountant but these articles are still unpublished. Now Institute only publish the article of member in Management Accountant and only in rare case the articles of students are published.
I am agree with you that ICMAP is not a university actually if we say or recommend initiation of M.S/M.Phil program it means that the Institute should enter in a contract with any university for the grant of M.S or M.Phil in finance for its qualified students.
It was mentioned above that only ten student of ICMAP qualified ICMA in last exams in this contex I beleive that ICMAP alway releases the students according to market demand and we know very well the current job market situation.
