    Inspiring success stories of 5 Chartered Accountants (CAs)

    What's the story

    Undoubtedly, in India, Chartered Accountancy (CA) is among the most coveted and respectable professions.

    However, cracking the ICAI's three-level CA program is considered quite difficult, and many aspirants spend years on it.

    It is important to keep trying despite failures, hardships, and other challenges.

    Here are the success stories of five candidates who cleared CA by beating all odds that prove perseverance is everything.

    #1

    Kailash Narayan Purohit cleared CA after 32 attempts

    As CA is a tough course with a low success rate, aspirants might lose interest or discontinue the course and give up on their dreams after a few failures.

    But Kailash Narayan Purohit of Jodhpur reportedly cleared it after failing 32 times over 20 years. Despite repeated failures, he realized that perseverance is crucial for success and cracked the CA Final (November 2010) examinations.

    #2

    Sumit Dawar failed 8 times before clearing CA Final exams

    Sumit Dawar's journey of becoming a Chartered Accountant is truly inspiring.

    Dawar, who cleared the entry-level CPT and second-level IPCC exams in the first attempt, took as many as eight attempts to clear CA Final exams.

    Though he failed eight times, unlike most students, he didn't slip into depression or quit. Instead, he bounced back and worked hard until he achieved success in 2014.

    #3

    Sujay KN's journey from failure to CA Final topper

    The story of Sujay KN is another inspiring one, which proves with hard work and determination, nothing is impossible.

    He failed to clear CA Final twice (November 2009 and May 2010). Despite two unsuccessful attempts, he didn't give up and worked on his flaws and performance.

    In his next attempt (November 2010), he not only cleared it but also topped CA Final, bagging AIR-1.

    With immense grit, perseverance, Rajasekhar became first visually challenged CA

    In 2013, J Rajasekhar Reddy of Andhra Pradesh's Guntur became India's first visually challenged CA.

    He lost vision due to optic nerve damage caused by a brain tumor at 11. Though he aspired to become a CA, preparing/studying for it was very difficult because of visual impairment.

    However, his teachers and volunteers helped him record books in an audio format and prepare for CA.

    #5

    Chirag Chauhan, train blast survivor, cracked CA despite physical challenges

    CA Chirag Chauhan is one of the survivors of the 2006 Mumbai serial train bombings.

    He was pursuing CA at the time, and his spinal cord was damaged, following which he was confined to a wheelchair. He had also lost his father when he was barely 18.

    Despite physical challenges and family responsibilities, he continued his CA studies and cleared the same in 2008.
