ICWA / CMA is easier than CA. However, fee structure is more or less the same for both. Comparatively ICWA / CMA has low fee, as it is a one year PG course.

Frankly speaking, it is very difficult and indefinite to decide the time required to complete CA. It takes quite a number of attempts for even an above average student to clear all exams.
