I understand right age to do CA is around 18 to 25 years. But what is the career scope for students who clear CA after the age of 40 years ? Can anyone clarify

Interesting question....I don’t want to give you the theoretical stuff...knowledge has no age blah blah.
The thing is why do you want to do CA? If it is like that you are doing a job somewhere in a related field and want to progress your chances with a CA- Yes go for it but again you would have to do 3 years of articles, which means you need to leave your full time job and if you cannot do that may be look for an alternative like CWA or may be CS, though CS is a different line.
Or if you want to CA just because you want a fancy degree - don’t bother CA would not be fun. Try to get a MBA from a decent college. It would be easier, less time consuming and less hassle.

mam for your kind information the minimum age for being a chartered accountant is 21. and the maximum age is till you are alive,, the person who clear at the age of 40 is also in gain if he/she have some experience in the field of accounting or taxation
