Good evening everyone,
I am a CA by profession and I want to pursue Indian Economic Service (IES). But the problem is I don't have a graduation degree (B. com). Can anyone suggest how to get a graduation or post graduation degree after CA and eligible for IES examination.
Thank you in advance

Do your graduation and post graduation from IGNOU as you will get exemption in many subjects as your ca is complete

Here are some alternatives to CA course in today's globlised era :
1. Get an international degree in accounting / auditing e.g. ACCA, ICAEW, CIMA, CPA (USA / AUS / NZ), CMA (USA), CIA, CISA, CFE etc. (all these courses are much easier than CA curriculum and several online / offline coaching classes are available in India).
2. Go for a course in ERP - SAP, Oracle EBS, Microsoft Business Central (MS Dynamics).
3. Go for a course on Data Analytics tools (ACL, IDEA), Data Visualisation / Business Intelligence Tools (R, Power BI, Tableau, Quilkview etc.).
4. Go for a course on a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) tool (e.g. UiPath, Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism etc.).
5. Go for a course on a GRC suite (e.g. RSA Archer, ServiceNow, SAP GRC etc. )

After gaining these degrees / certifications / skill sets, you will easily get an opportunity in an IT company, Big4, MNC, KPO, Global Delivery Centre / Shared Services Centre of an MNC / Big4.
