📄 Abstract
The demographic composition of accounting professionals is a critical yet often-overlooked factor in the adoption of cloud accounting. This study examines the structural characteristics of accounting professionals in Gujarat, using primary data from 522 respondents and analysing variables including gender, age, geographic location, education, professional designation, experience, and organisational type. The results indicate that the workforce is predominantly male, young, professionally qualified, urban-based, and employed in the private sector. These structural characteristics create a generally favourable yet complex context for the diffusion of cloud-based accounting systems. The demographic profile established in this study provides a foundational framework for future research. It informs targeted policy interventions to accelerate cloud accounting adoption and support the digital transformation of the accounting profession in Gujarat.
