CA exams are conducted by ICAI (Instistute of Chartered Accountants of India) and requires you to clear CPT, IPCC and Final CA. Since you are a graduate, you can directly appear for IPCC which has two groups. After clearing one of the groups, you will have to register for articleship under experienced CA's for two and a half years. After clearing both the groups of IPCC and articleship, you can appear for Final CA, which again has two groups and after clearing them, you are a proud Chartered Accountant.

Dear Ahmed,
With all due respect to my learned colleague, I want to point out that there is a slight different in investment advisory and investment banking.
Essentially an investment advisor helps high networth individuals in managing their wealth by advising their customers about investment opportunities. They keep a track of market opportunities.
Investment Bankers help the corporate as businesses in raising capital through debt syndication or equity placement.
To become an investment advisor which you asked, you could do CFP or a 1 Year PG Diploma in Banking and Finance. With right skills and above mentioned qualifications, you will be able to earn starting salaries of 3 to 4 lakh per annum.
Feel free to connect with me for any further clarifications. Wish you good luck with your career decisions.
Best of Luck!
