Dear aspirant,

Salary of a Chartered Accountant in India depends on his/her skills, capabilities, and experience. The average salary of Chartered Accountants in India ranges from 6-7 lakhs to 30 lakhs. International packages are even higher ranging up to 75 lakhs.

Last year stats show that average salary of CAs in India was offered around 7.36 lakhs p.a. in the campus placement conducted by ICAI. Rank Holders and Single attempt passed students get a priority over the multiple attempts passed students.

However, there are many candidates who start their own practice after taking job experience of 2-3 years in a reputed CA Firms. If such candidate is well capable to do so then there is no upper limit for his/her growth. Although, many such small firms shut down in a short span due to high competition.

Candidates wishing to start their own practice after some years of experience join CA Firm which gives them a great exposure. Here, a fresher Chartered Accountant learns how to deal with the client or how to deal with the Income Tax Officer. Might be you are thinking that you have gained such experience in your articleship training also, but the scope of an article is always limited. The experience which you can gain after becoming a Chartered Accountant could not be possible in your articleship training.The salary offered by CA Firms generally range between 3-8 lacs.

Hope the answer is helpful.

Good luck!

What Is a Chartered Accountant?

Chartered accountant designation is worldwide, and it refers to professional accountants who are qualified to take on a number of specific activities within the spectrum of accountancy. Such tasks include auditing financial statements, filing of corporate tax returns and financial advising. While the name is seen around the globe, in the United States, the equivalent position is known as a certified public accountant, or CPA. The professional body that governs this group of accounting workers goes back to 1854 where it was founded in Britain. There are now several associations that act as governing and accrediting bodies for these professionals, such as the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.

What Chartered Accountants Do

There are four areas in which these accountancy professionals serve. They are taxation, financial accounting and reporting, applied finance and management accounting. The specialization an accountant chooses determines under which umbrella he or she works. Chartered accountants can wear a number of hats. It’s possible that they may oversee a corporation or business’s entire accountancy needs. They may have a more narrow function such as being in charge of just one aspect of a business like auditing or taxes. Many of these highly skilled workers will go out on their own as freelancers or consultants for hire.

How to Become a Chartered Accountant

How to become a chartered accountant depends upon the country where you want to work, as each has its own requirements for certification. Regardless of specifics, chartered accountants do meet more stringent academic and practical requirements than other levels of accountant. In most cases, there is a standard bachelor’s level degree consisting of coursework in business and accounting subjects, followed by a practicum or internship or some kind and then a specific program in chartered accounting principals. A person must be quite dedicated in order to achieve the rank of CA, but the position is a well-respected one that usually carries a higher salary than other types of accountant.

hi panakaj,

please provide me details about your percentage, catagory you belong to ETC.

also please mention that if you have given any entrance exam or not 

Hi Silpee,

Yes, you can appear for CA after BBA. Infact, CA papers don't even require a bachelor degree. You can give them at any stage after class 12th. But, students prefer to opt for B.Com along with CA preparation as the syllabus in both is similar and easy to manage.

Wish you all the best.

Hello Aspirant,

I understand that opting for CA or CS like courses needs guts, dedication and proper understanding of each and every concept.

You can simply go for short term certified professional courses like CCA(Certified Corporate Accountant), CCP(Certified Corporate Professionals) or Tally ERP 9.0 with GST as they are trending these days because of the implementation of GST in India.
Hope this information is helpful!!!

Hi, Harshit

All three courses are pretty different 

B.Com hons. and BMS are the general courses. Professionally speaking both of them are high in demand but you can only do M.Com or MBA after these.

Whereas Eco hons. is a specialised course. You will study both Eco and Maths side by side at your graduation level. The economics will be more in depth. Further, you can opt for MBA, M.E or for Indian Economic Services.

So, pursue the course in which you are most interested so that it can be a benefactor to you in your further professional line.

All the best.

If you want to change your stream in the college in you're studying, you have to contact college authority for this if such a possibility exists. Else drop this course and apply to those colleges where admission process has not begun
