I have Completed Graduation from B.com Hons. I want to become a CA. What can i do ?
Hello,
CA consists of three stages :
- Foundation course (CPT)
- Integrated Professional Competency Course ( IPCC )
- CA Final stage
After completing B.Com you need not to appear for Foundation course. So as you have completed your B.com Hons you don't need to appear for CPT if you fulfill the eligibility criteria which is :-
Eligibility :
Candidate must have done graduation with minimum 55% marks( If from commerce stream).
Minimum 60% if you are a non commerce student (which you aren't).
First of all you have to register yourself to IPCC. There are two groups in IPCC. You can choose any of them. Group I has 4 subjects and Group II has 3 subjects.
Group I :
Accounting : 100 Marks
Business Laws, Ethics and Communication : 100 Marks
Cost Accounting and Financial Management : 100 Marks
Taxation : 100 Marks
Group II :
Advanced Accounting : 100 Marks
Auditing and Assurance : 100 Marks
Information Technology and Strategic Management : 100 Marks
After passing Integrated test, candidate have to appear for CA Final Course. Best of luck, hope my answer would help you.
Before Pursuing CA, Try to join as Account Executive/Accounting Manager at most popular audit office in your primary location for 10 months...
Hello,
I will figure out some important steps which you need to follow in order to become a CA. For that you need to do:
1. CA CPT: It's the entrance exam for CA. If you are a graduate with certain % you may skip this.
2. CA IPCC: It's the next step. It has 7 subjects in 2 groups and after passing one group you can start your articleship.
3. Articleship: It's for 3 years and it is necessary to do it for 2 and a half years in order to become eligible for CA Final exam.
4. CA Final: After passing both groups in IPCC you enroll in this course having 8 subjects in 2 groups.
And finally you are a CA after passing both groups of final exam.
I still recommend you to please visit the official site of ICAI in order to get detailed information.
