Is a B.Com. Degree compulsory for becoming a CA?

No deepika, B.Com degree is not at all necessary for becoming a CA. People try to do their graduation side by side to professional courses such as CA. B.Com is one of the best course for practicing CA. Almost all the subjects taught in B.Com are somewhere used in CA. So B.Com is helpful but not necessary for CA.

No, unlike a popular misconception, the B.Com degree is not compulsory if you want to become a CA. The CA is a professional course like the MBA. After completing the 12th grade, you can enroll in this course through the CPT route. If you are looking to do CA after graduation, you must have a degree by the time you apply for the CA Intermediate. You can apply with any degree, like B.Sc. Or B.A. To pursue the CA course. The B.Com is typically recommended because it is relevant for the CA programme. You will learn the fundamentals of commerce and accounting in B.Com which will also be covered in your CA course. Hence, you can prefer it if you are not enrolled in any other degree; otherwise, you can pursue CA with any Bachelor's degree.
