1. If u r a CA student, and acting as insurance agent, then need to fill form 109 nd submit to ICAI seeking permission for such job. Otherwise, it may hinder ur studentship at ICAI.....

2. Yes, i think one can go for both, i.e life insurance and general insurance together. But after being a full-time practitioner, u cannot carry on ur insurance agency work anymore....

Thank you sir for your guidance. Regarding last question, i have seen many insurance agents working more professionally and earning much more than a practicing CA. However, second your opinion that practicing as a CA is better. Thank you once again for guidance.
