Top Companies Hiring US CMA Interns in India
The biggest recruiters of US CMA interns and trainees in India are MNCs, Global Capability Centres (GCCs), the Big 4, and IMA partner companies. The IMA lists firms such as Amazon, Accenture, HPE, L&T and Wipro as partners actively seeking CMA talent, alongside IT-finance majors like TCS, Infosys and HCL. Stipends typically run ₹10,000–₹30,000/month.
Here’s who hires, the roles they offer, and how to position yourself.
IMA partner companies and MNCs
The IMA’s India partnerships put CMA talent directly in front of large employers — Amazon, Accenture, HPE, Larsen & Toubro and Wipro among them — for internships and placements across finance and costing functions. These are strong targets because the employer already values the credential.
GCC finance hubs
Global Capability Centres are the single fastest-growing source of CMA roles in India, hiring for FP&A, cost control and management-accounting teams that support global parent companies. Many are remote-friendly, widening access well beyond the metros.
IT-services finance teams
TCS, Infosys and HCL hire CMAs into Financial Analyst, Business Planning Analyst, Cost Controller and FP&A roles — useful for exposure to large, international client-facing finance operations.
Big 4 firms
Deloitte, EY, PwC and KPMG hire CMAs for audit, advisory, consulting and finance-transformation work. The brand and structured learning make these among the most valuable starting points.

Megha’s Take The CMA’s biggest advantage in India right now is the GCC boom — global companies running their finance from India need exactly the FP&A and cost-control skills the CMA teaches. Target GCCs and IMA partner firms specifically rather than applying to generic “accountant” roles, and your CMA suddenly looks like the obvious hire rather than a nice-to-have. — Megha Bhansali, CA, ACCA Member, Ex-Big 4 (India & UK) |
