Hi Soma, CA requires a lot of studying and hard work and when I say lot, I mean studying 14-16 hours a day. Also think whether you are ready to give up your college life for it. There are numerous sacrifices you will have to make. So go through your head, sit down with a pen and paper in your hand and decide what you want to do. Ask and question people in the line and after considering all of this only take up the decision to become a CA. To pursue CA you will have to enroll yourself with ICAI which is the regulatory body in India. 1. To enroll with ICAI (Institute of Chartered of India) 10th completion is sufficient. 2. Once you enroll you will get study material from the board. 3. To write exams you will have to complete 12th. You can attend private tuitions or ICAI even conducts classes or self-study can be done. If you wish to join CA on 12th basis then you will face 1st level of CA-CPT exams. CPT has four subjects. 200marks which are objective type (MCQ) with 0.25 negative for each wrong answer I. Fundamentals of Accounting. II. Mercantile Law. III. General Economics. IV. Quantitative Aptitude. You can also join CA under direct entry scheme which means you can complete your degree (B.Com/BBM). Join 2nd level of CA directly which is IPCC which is descriptive exams with 7 subjects classified as group1 and group2 and no negative markings. You can enter CA after 12th or under direct entry scheme with degree complete and better accounting skills Feel free to raise more questions. Appreciate by giving it thumbs up or marking as best. All the Best.

How can I pursue CA?
