I have done my diploma in business accounting and right now i am working on a 3 year work permit. I was interested in knowing that is my course eligible in any sense under express entry to apply for PR. What job under accounting would be perfect enough to show my experience in. It is a really urgent question.

What you want to know is your NOC code which could be 1111 or 1311 (Google it).

Also, you will need to get your degree or diploma evaluated http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

I am working under 1311 accounting technician and moving forward to 1241 administrative assistant. Would any of these jobs be eligible to show my experience in for the express entry.
thanks

All NOC level A, B and 0 jobs qualify. It sounds like you need to spend additional time reading through the program requirements in detail:

Well actually the reason why I am so concerned about accounting is because according to the new cic rules few job occupations such as chefs and cooks and few other jobs including accounting were eliminated from the list of occupations eligible for PR. So reading that information made me nervous about future.

There is no such rule under express entry. You are confusing last year's CEC rules with this year's rule. Again, I would recommend you spend more time reading through the requirements on the CIC web site for Express Entry.

Trust me scylla i have read all the requirements under the new CIC rules and everyone whom i have talked to till now tells me just one thing that every job under my course is out of the eligibility. I appreciate you giving me the time so winding up everything i would like to ask one straight question. Should i move forward to gain 1 year experience as an administrative assistant or some other accounting job?

What you've been told by those people is plain wrong. Your accounting job will be just fine for eligibility. How many years experience do you have?
