CA WITH MBA IS A GOOD OPTION.

CA WITH CFA IS A GOD CHOICE BUT..

OTHER DEGREE DOESNT MATTER ONCE YOU FINISH CA..

Kanika, I was of same viepoint as your ealrier (To do MBA or CFA after CA) but Gradually realised that Instead of attaining other additional proffessional degree from other institute but still earning the same salary (like working as CA and MBA with same or nearly high salary) it's better to go for advance courses offered by ICAI itself. The candidates preparing for post qualification to CA are also slightly preffered more so think about it.

You can Get more info of Post Qualification Courses offered by ICAI on our site at members section.

MBA adds value only if u get it passed from reputed universities... so CFA is always preferable...

Dont select any course. Whats your interest?

CA & CFA is very distinct course.. Both them will not help you together as compared to that CA with MBA will be more useful.

CA + MBA (from good institute) > CA + CFA

Thanks!!

first practice as a ca for some years say 3-4 years after that you shoukd think of any other degree..

bcoz in the initial days.. more degree cannot give you hih bucks.. instead you will get confused later that in which feild you want to practice...

if you will do any other course after setting as ca.. it will really add on to your pay..

well anyways u can do same vocational or short term courses..

ohk.. then try doing that course which will enhance your personality + will not take much tym..

also your interest matter a lot.. and that is the most important thing to be considered while taking the decision
