    It depends on various aspects such as how good you are in logical reasoning, quantitative analysis, language, aptitude and your own area of interest.
    Both are completely different from each other and need to adopt different approach to study
    Look at IPCC syllabus:
    Paper 1: Accounting
    Paper 2: Business Laws, Ethics and Communication
    Paper 3: Cost Accounting and Financial Management
    Paper 4: Taxation
    Paper 5: Advanced Accounting
    Paper 6: Auditing and Assurance
    Paper 7: Information Technology and Strategic Management
    For this, you need to get in depth particular subject knowledge and you are judged on the basis of your analytical skills.

    CA IPCC is way more tough than CA. Exam becuase on comparing Statistics 2lac students appear for CA. Examination in which 1lac students only appear to just gain experience and to learn exam pattern and the real competition is with 1 lac students in which around 20k students get colleges with quite good placements and their career is about to be set in 2 years. Whereas in CA (whether Inter or final) around 1 lac students give exams and only 10k students qualify. And also comparing syllabuswise, CA. Exam is just a MCQ based exam where you just need to practice questions you do not need so much deep knowledge about the topics and chapters

In general, as per available education sources, the CAT cutoff for FLAME University lies around 70–75 percentiles for the 2025 admissions. Though this score helps the candidates qualify for the shortlisting stage, FLAME follows a holistic selection process; hence, the final admission also depends on academic records, interviews, and overall profile strength.
