We are assuming that by 'without maths', you mean without prior knowledge of maths. You do not need prior maths knowledge to clear the CFA. You will be taught the required quantitative skills in the course. You can do self-study but we strongly recommend you join prep classes as this will save you all the confusion.

I guess you are confused with too many courses in mind.
Have some patience and focus on one course at a time. If you wish to pursue CFA / FRM, please focus on it instead of CA and vice-versa. Doing too many courses simultaneously can be a risky affair.

Completing B.Com with IPCC group 1 would not completely fill in the conceptual knowledge required for financial & investment analysis, portfolio management, etc. It will certainly give you the knowledge required in accounting & auditing.
