Why to do CS

Because its a THINKING BEYOND OBVIOUS profession

originated from the Latin word

secretarius
COMPANY

SECRETARY

A person to whom a SECRET is entrusted. It reflects the confidentiality of the role and the trust placed on the position.

Company Secretary

Company Secretary is the officer of the company who aligns various management functions with company policies, ensures compliance of all applicable laws and endeavors to develop mutual trust between various stakeholders for sustainable growth of the company.
The use of the word secretary in the name of this specialization is a bit misleading for one who is new to the concept. A Company Secretary has nothing to do with regular secretarial work. A Company Secretary is a professional whose role in a corporate set up is that of an advisor for legal matters.

Snapshot
The CS professionals, along with the chartered

accountants and cost accountants, are seen as the three pillars of the corporate world with regards to legal compliances; finances, taxation and costing. Every company with a paid up capital of over Rs 5 crore is legally bound to employ a full-time CS The only profession apart from CA and CWA that have statutory power given by central govt.

Cont
The demand for qualified CS professionals is

bound to grow considering the prevailing demand-supply mismatch." As of now, the ICSI has 30,000 enrolled members and it extends coaching and training services to 2.80 lakh students across India. The growing demand for the professionals can be gauged from the rising number of enrolments for the CS exam, which is up from 94,000 in December 2010 to 1.20 lakh in 2011
