    No, it is not true that only a commerce student can become a CA. While a background in commerce can provide a strong foundation due to the overlap in subjects like accounting and finance, students from other educational streams can also pursue a CA.

    The CA course, offered by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), is open to students from various academic backgrounds after completing their 12th grade.

    After completing class 12th from any stream, a student can pursue CA, CPT or IPCC. It is easy for a commerce background student.
