Hi Sajjad,
Chartered Accountancy can be pursued after Class 10+2 or graduation. To become a CA, you need to enroll with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) the only statutory body in India, which conducts the CA course, holds examinations and prescribes qualifications for membership. Head quartered in New Delhi, the Institute has five regional offices and 97 branch offices in the country, apart from 12 Chapters outside India.

Hi Sajjad,as you have completed BCom you can opt the direct entry to IPCC so that you get exemption from CPT which is the preliminary stage of CPT.If you are pursuing IPCC through direct entry then you have IPCC class along with ITT classes.After that you have to do your articleship for 9 months then only you can appear for IPCC exam.Then complete the remaining years of articleship.You can attempt the final exam when you have completed your 2.5 years of articleship.But it is being heard that direct entry is going to be removed so that even a graduate has to start from the preliminary stage itself.
Hope this helped you
