I have done B.Com. Which course should I do for a bright future among CA and MBA?

If you are interested in finance and accounting, and have a strong aptitude for numbers, then CA could be a good choice for you. CA is a professional course that trains you in accounting, auditing, taxation, and financial management. It is a highly respected qualification in the business world and can open up opportunities in various sectors such as finance, accounting, taxation, audit, and consulting. On the other hand, if you are interested in management and want to develop your leadership and business skills, then an MBA could be a good option for you. MBA is a post-graduate degree that provides you with a broad-based education in business and management. It can help you develop a strong understanding of various functional areas such as marketing, finance, human resources, and operations, and prepare you for leadership roles in various industries.

Hi. Nilay. Your aptitude and area of interest will determine this. A career as a CA can be quite rewarding if you enjoy accounting and can imagine yourself performing audits of businesses. Many people pursue both an MBA in finance and a CA. MBA/PGDM makes sense but only if you appreciate management and want to pursue a certain specialisation like marketing, human resources, etc. MBA/PGDM from a reputable university or college like GIBS Bangalore with strong placements makes sense.

Dear Nilay, Its totally depends upon your area of interest.CA opens doors to private practice, corporate jobs in accounting and finance and consulting while MBA opens the doors to large number of functions and fields in corporate jobs as per the specialisation done. CA is offered only by ICAI while MBA is offered by about 1000 colleges in India. CA is far tougher to clear as he passing percentage is less than 5% You must choose MBA, only from universities of high repute like Iims, SPJMER, FMS Delhi, Great lakes Chennai, SIBM, IBS, ISB Hyderabad, UBS Chandigarh and LPU Punjab. Both have their own pros and cons. I did MBA from LPU and LPU is helping me grow professionally and personally with its career-oriented programs and support.I would say ,The Business School of LPU is accredited from (ACBSP) Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs from the USA ensuring quality education and industry experienced faculties, studying in LPU will get a degree accredited from a body of USA.LPU has recently Marked among Top 50 Best Management Institutes by NIRF ranking 2020. Also, LPU has won National Employability Award 2020. University have Collaboration/Tie up with the companies like NSE, Safe Educate, ICICI Direct, HDFC, etc. to give students the opportunity for pursuing live projects and/or professional certifications like NCCMP, NCFM etc. Students get opportunity to Industry desired workshops on Digital Marketing, Business Analytics, Stock Market Operations, Life Skills, Creativity and Innovation, and Leadership to make students industry ready. The university also gives us the opportunity to get real-life exposure through various training programs and an internship, which is mandatory for all. Professors go for value-based education which is something we as professionals would require in our career. Guest lectures by experts and some really successful people are arranged by our department to widen our scope of learning.Most of faculty members are from IIM or from elite B- Schools (India/Abroad. They have decade of experience. Faculty was really helping. Even they helped her after regular university hours for her projects. If you are concerned about placements. There are plenty of career opportunities after MBA in different sectors of industries like Banking and Finance, Investment Banking, multinationals, foreign banks, public sector undertakings, in effect the whole corporate sector offer bright opportunities to management graduates. Thank you!

Both MBA and CA are good options for career boost up in the commerce line. An MBA is a post-graduation course that you can do only if you have passed your graduation. CA on the other hand is a professional degree course that can be applied for after the twelfth standard or after graduation. The overall money invested in a CA certification is less as compared to an MBA degree. Out of 100, only 3-5% of candidates are able to qualify and get certified as CA. 90-95% of candidates who opt for an MBA course end up getting good jobs. As per my experience, I would like to advise you that MBA at LPU offers an optimum blend of theory and practice to provides a solid foundation in general business management with specializations in the area of choice. The Business School of LPU is accredited by ACBSP, Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs from the USA ensuring quality education and industry-experienced faculty members, studying in LPU will get a degree accredited from a body of USA. Impeccable placement records with more than 150 companies including ITC, Asian Paints, HDFC, Federal Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, Moody's Analytics, WNS Global etc. And so on recruiting MBA students with the highest package of 21 Lacs Per Annum and on an average package will be 4LPA TO 6 LPA with more than 90 % placement rates. International exposure with foreign internship opportunities with articulation programs opportunities where one can complete his/her degree in the foreign country under the 1+1 programme, where the student will study one year in LPU and final year abroad and get the degree of the foreign university. The largest private university with accommodation and food facilities for a staggering 20,000+ students in a single university. Admissions at LPU are on air these days, So, don't wait just go and get your seat confirmed.

MBA in Finance, being a postgraduate degree in management has a very wide scope. Graduates can find jobs in some of the top private companies of their respective fields as well as in banking and accounting firms in India. CA can be pursued by a student who has just completed Class 12th, graduation or postgraduate. So, in my opinion choosing to do MBA with specialisation is a better choice, rest it depends on your interest for which field you want to go for. Joining LPU will open a door of lots of opportunities for you in terms of industrial exposure, internships, placements, workshops etc. LPU is one of the best private universities in the country with world-class infrastructure, modern facilities and highly qualified faculty. I suggest all students do an MBA course at LPU. Highlights of MBA at LPU are - 1) Accredited by ACBSP (USA). 2) Credit Transfer - Student after successful completion of 1 year at LPU may be given option to join partner/ receiving university abroad for the completion of programme subject to conditions and norms of regulatory bodies. 3) International Exposure Option - Student may be given an option to go for 4 weeks study tour to USA/ European countries or any other country as decided by the University subject to conditions. So, with these choices you get the International exposure and the opportunities to get the exposure for abroad as well. Placements: Placements offered by the LPU for MBA course are very good. The minimum salary package offered is 5 LPA, and the highest salary package offered till now is 42 LPA.

Since you are about to complete class 12th you are only eligible for the CA course. For applying for the MBA course you will have to first complete graduation. On completing CA you will find opportunities mainly in the auditing and taxation area. So apply for the course if it interests you. If you are interested in administrative role then apply for MBA entrance exams during the final year graduation.

Both the course had bright future. Looking at the competitiveness of today environment, no one can ignore the importance of having a professional degree. On one hand, we have professional courses like CA CMA, CS and on the other side, we have a postgraduate degree like MBA having its own benefit label.
