What should i choose carrier after bcom give an specific way that i will reach without any obstacles?
Hi Abhijit,
Thanks for A2A.
Most students generally chosse MBA as a further step after B Com as they are very much similr and open scope for wider range of options. For this you need to write entrance exams like CAT, XAt, MAT, NMAT, SNAP, IIFT etc. You can google and find out more about these exams.
Another career option that a few people choose is to do CA and become a Chartered Accountant. A government certified CA can earn well and be well settle in a good job.
Mostly MBA is the preferred domain as people can grow to leadership roles from this field.
Hope this helps
All the best
Chartered Accountant (CA)
One of the most common careers for commerce students is CA. CA exams are conducted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAI) and require one to clear three examinations viz. CPT, IPCC and Final CA. IPCC exam consists of two groups. After clearing one of the groups, a student is required to register for articleship with an experienced Chartered Accountant for a period of at least two and a half years. After clearing both groups of IPCC and successfully completing your articleship you can appear for the Final CA exam. Like IPCC, Final CA has two groups as well. After clearing both the groups, you can proudly affix CA before your name.

Masters of Business Administration (MBA in Finance)
There is always someone in the family who will advise you to pursue MBA. A good career in MBA mostly depends on the credibility of the institute it is pursued at. If you are an IIM student, then success will follow you to your doorsteps but doing MBA from an ordinary or a less renowned institute, might not add much value to you resume. The first step for MBA is the CAT (Common Admission Test) exam. CAT scores determine your eligibility in almost all the top MBA institutes.
Eligibility: Graduation and above
Duration: 3 years
Dear Aspirant,
As you are a commerce graduate you can choose the following career options,
* Chartered Accountant (CA)
The eligibility requirement to become a Chartered Accountant:
1. A candidate is eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course (ATC) on passing the Common Proficiency Test and Senior Secondary Examination (10+2 examination) conducted by an examining body constituted by law in India or an examination recognized by the Central Government as equivalent thereto.
2. A candidate who has already passed Entrance Examination or Foundation Examination or Professional Education (Examination-I) shall be eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course subject to complying with relevant conditions.
3. A candidate who was already registered for erstwhile Intermediate/ Professional Education (Course-II)/ Intermediate (Professional Competence) Course shall be eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course subject to complying with relevant conditions. Students who have registered for the Intermediate (IPC) course without the option of ATC can also opt Accounting Technician Course subsequently.
Procedure to become a Chartered accountant after 12th
Step1: Start CA Course through CPT Route after passing Class 10th
Register with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) for the Common Proficiency Test (CPT) after passing the 10th class exams and take the exam after completing High School (Grade 12).For CPT there are four subjects which you have to test for: Accounts, Law, Economics and Quantitative Analysis. A 200 marks exam in which you have to score a 100 to be eligible to proceed means you have to achieve 50%.
Step2: Registration for Integrated Professional Competence Course (IPCC)
In order to register for the Integrated Professional Competence Course (IPCC), the candidate should pass both CPT and 12th class. Registration for the IPCC should be done nine months prior to the first day of the month in which examination is held.

IPCC has 2 groups of subjects, group 1 having four papers Accounts, Law, Taxation and Costing&FM and group 2 has three papers which are Audit, IT&SM, and Advanced Accountancy. If you get more than 60 in any subject, you get an exemption which means that if you fail, you don’t have to repeat that paper in the next attempt.
Step3: Articleship
After slogging and clearing the IPCC exam came the Articleship. Articleship is a 3-year long internship which you have to complete along with the Final CA exam. In this, you have to work under a qualified CA for 3 years
