As i already said that both/any of these may be hired for a specific job, but in no case Acca may be considered equivalent to Qualified CA (in Pakistan). <b>If an employer asks for both in an advertisement then it does not mean that both of these are equally qualified.</b> A Qualified ACCA work at even less than 15K in pakistan in most of the cases, can you show me a single qualified CA working within this range in pakistan?
ACCA has little worth in Pakistan, i understand, still some people, like you, may consider ACCA equal to CA in Pakistan even. but thinking never change the situation unless efforts are made. Every one is doing ACCA is Pakistan, it is good as far as to avail exemptions from ICAP is concerned but not even equivalent to Bcom in pakistan.
ICAP should restrict exemptions to ACCA upto Module A & B only.

ACA and B.Com are not equally qualified. Have you ever come across a job ad stating CA/B.Com with articles? You'd never because, yes, these are not at same level. But when you see CA/ACCA then think again what does it mean.
Anyhow, I do not want to involve in same typical rhetorical debate with you that "my CA is better than your ACCA". I made my point very clear that value of qualification is derived mainly from its job market. So if ACCA is considered equal to ACA by employers then there is no other treatment available. As for benchmarking 15k then working at 15k doesn't mean its the upper limit.
Anyways, its all about time. Earlier we used to see job ads like CA(inter)/ACCA and now seeing CA/ACCA is a great achievement and shows that ACCAs in market have proved themselves.
