Cost of CPA in India

 


US CPA Evaluation Fee
USD 200 – 300 approx.
State Board Registration Fees
USD 100 – 200 approx.
US CPA Exam Section + NTS Fee
USD 390 per section
International Testing Fees
USD 510 per section

Cost-Saving Strategies

  1. Choose wisely between prep providers—some like Miles offer free content access, while others (e.g., Simandhar with Becker) can cost ₹90,000+ 

  2. Aim for first-pass success—each retake costs another ₹63k+ per section.

  3. Plan travel carefully, though with test centers across major cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad), travel can be minimized 

  4. Consider education loans or EMI plans—Indian students have options like Bajaj Finance or IDFC to manage tuition and exam fees

Earning a US CPA from India in 2025 typically costs ₹2.5–4 lakh (USD 3 k–5 k). This covers exam fees, international charges, prep courses, and associated expenses. While significant, many candidates view it as a smart investment—opening global career paths in finance, taxation, and consulting
