India’s convergence of Ind AS with IFRS has reshaped reporting standards. The IFRS certification courses from ACCA, mainly DipIFR equips professionals with practical knowledge and global credibility, whereas CertIFR gives students a peek into financial reporting, making these perfect qualifications for a thriving career in accounting and finance.
If you are looking to advance your accounting career, mastering International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) is no longer optional – it is a global necessity. ACCA offers two premier qualifications designed to build and certify your expertise: the CertIFR (Certificate in International Financial Reporting) and the DipIFR (Diploma in International Financial Reporting).
IFRS Accounting Standards are required for all or most listed companies in more than 140 countries and territories.
Start with CertIFR online, then progress to DipIFR. CertIFR plus two years’ relevant accounting experience is one route in.
Choose live face-to-face, online or hybrid classes, with doubt-solving sessions and ACCA past-paper practice for both exams.
India’s accounting standards (Ind AS) are based on IFRS, so learning IFRS helps you work with Ind AS.
Investing in an ACCA IFRS certification not only bridges the gap between local GAAP and global standards but also significantly boosts your marketability in a highly competitive international job market.

CertIFR is ACCA’s foundational IFRS qualification, assessed online and flexible in timing. DipIFR is the advanced diploma, assessed through a single computer-based exam held twice a year (June and December), and carries greater weight with employers. GLOBALFTI prepares candidates for both. If you are a qualified professional accountant, DipIFR is typically the right choice. If you are earlier in your career, CertIFR is the natural starting point.
No. DipIFR is a standalone qualification — you do not need to be registered as an ACCA student. Any qualified accountant or eligible professional can register directly with ACCA for DipIFR.
