There can be no global peace and order without India
CA Shaurya Doval, founder of the India Foundation, was addressing the Chartered Accountants’ community at an event organised by the Bombay Chartered Accountants’ Society.
MUMBAI: At an event organised by the Bombay Chartered Accountants’ Society (BCAS) CA Shaurya Doval stressed India's growing stature as a global power over the last decade. He pointed out India's push for a permanent seat at the United Nations Security Council and its independent stances in international forums, establishing the country as a key geopolitical player across South Asia, Africa, West Asia and increasingly in Europe.
Doval remarked on India's emergence as a significant economic force, now the fourth largest economy globally. He foresaw that India's hard power will hinge on its ability to export unique intellectual contributions, beyond traditional talent exports. Referring to the global embrace of yoga and Ayurveda, he suggested that as India articulates its vision more effectively, it will be recognised for its intellectual legacy, possibly earning the title of Vishwaguru. With advancements in technology and economic diversity, India is poised to take on a responsible role in shaping global systems instead of exerting dominance.
The session also included discussions on how Chartered Accountants must adapt to the rapidly changing economic and financial landscape while remaining committed to ethical leadership and values-based decision-making. CA Zubin Billimoria, President of BCAS, highlighted the importance of such platforms for community learning and fostering dialogue among professionals.
The event featured a guided tour of the Jyot Foundation Exhibition titled “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam Ki Oar 4: The 12 Principles That Can Shape a New World Order,” aimed at enriching the cultural and philosophical understanding of global leadership.
Founded over seventy years ago, BCAS has significantly influenced the Chartered Accountancy profession in India, extending beyond technical education to discussions on leadership, governance, and ethics. It has facilitated informed dialogues on taxation, regulation, and corporate governance through lectures, publications, and policy engagement.
This session exemplified BCAS's ongoing commitment to preparing its members for an environment demanding sound judgment, ethical behavior, and a comprehensive global perspective. The event ended with networking opportunities among participants, reflecting BCAS's dedication to professional development and leadership training within the Chartered Accountancy community.
