Accounting & Commerce

Hi Roopchand,
You should not give up. You should at least clear group 1, so that you can do articleship. Otherwise, you can practice under a CA and give IPCC exams.

Hi Karthik,
After completing your class 12th, you can register yourself with ICAI for CPT. After clearing CPT, you can give IPCC. You can either clear both groups or any 1 group and enroll yourself as an article assistant. Articleship is for 3 years. After completing 2.5 years of articleship, you can register for final.

Hi Chethan,
You can do MBA, CS or CMA.

Hi Swetha,
You can pursue B.Com through correspondence mode because CA has vast syllabus. Sometimes, it may affect your articleship too. ICAI do provide such an option to CA students. You can pursue from top universities like IGNOU.

Hi Jaimin,
CA has 3 stages:
1. CPT.
2. IPCC.
3. Final.
CPT is for 6 months. After clearing CPT, you can give IPCC which is for 9 months. You can enroll yourself as an article assistant after clearing either both or any group. Articleship is for 3 years. Upon the completion of 2.5 years, you can register yourself for final exams.

Hi Shrutik,
In order to pursue CA, either you should have cleared your class 12 or you should be a graduate.

Hi Arnab,
Since, you want to pursue CA, you should give importance to papers like cost accounting, financial management, business laws and taxation. This will help you to get a foundation for CA inter.

Hi Sadique,
Both courses have their own reputation. It all depends upon, who you want to be?

Bank PO exams are based on the marks of graduation. M.Com will be an added value. Bank PO exams consider following criteria:
(a) Aggregate marks of UG.
(b) Final scores in PO test.
(c) Interviews.
You should continue your preparation for PO exams along with your graduation.
All the best.
