Hi Ravinder,
CPGA is a gateway assessment exam that is offered to qualified / members of ICMAP, ICMAP, ICWAI etc. Once you pass the CPGA you are eligible for exemptions from CIMA Certificate, Operation Level and Managerial Level exams and are also awarded with CIMA Advanced Diploma in Management Accounting and you can use designatory letters CIMA Adv. Dip MA. But you can not call youeself CIMA qualified till you pass all the exams and have your experience successfully verified. I hope it helps.
regards,
Aqeel.
