Due diligence role“In addition, we also request that the CS be given the task of conducting the due diligence in loan approvals by cooperative banks,” she added. The demand for CS had been growing phenomenally of late along with the remuneration packages. “This year, there was 30 per cent growth in the number of students over the previous year. The average salary for the talented freshers is at Rs 6.5 lakh per annum. The global offers for Indian CS are also growing,” she pointed out.
