Guyz STOP FIGHTING!!! The question here is not about quality and under quality CAs. The question here is that each student who does hardwork should pass. And each CA should be gven an opportunity to get interviewed at the campus. Not that only those who have completed their articleship from BIG 4s and Top 20 firms should have practical knowledge. Even those from small domestic firms have practical knowledge. SO ICAI must do something to provide aleast 90% CAs a job offer. Whether you accept it or not is a different question; either on grounds of package or place of posting. The balance CAs will automatically get absorbed by the industry. AND WHAT IS THE NEED FOR RESERVATION WHEN EACH ONE HAS CLEARED THE SAME EXAM AT AN ALL INDIA LEVEL.

Sir,,, undoubtedly u have more experience than me,,, all i want to say with "PRACTICAL SOLUTION" is that,,,, there is basic rule my CA taught me,, ""hamesha ye maan kar chalna ki saamne wala kuch nai karega,, he is dumb man,,, U have to help yourself""

What i mean to say is Lets forget what ICAI will do,,

MY QUESTION IS WHAT SHOULD I DO TO SECURE MY FUTURE,,, other than joining a big 4 or some top company for training........

y the heel icai should be responsible for placements. doctors ke liye kabhi campus hota hai kya. there is no point in dragging icai to assure job. i did my articleship from medium firm from jaipur..was not having rank. but i still managed to go through 6 stage interview of procter and gamble (the co. which only calls rankers). guys its up to you how you develops yourself. For Ex: dtc/gst/ifrs/comapanies bill 2011/ xbrl is not in the course rite now. But do any of us gone through what it is. How many of us read business newspaper. Think upon it.

Why on earth everybody is giving examples of Procter & Gamble???You cleared 6 really tough stages of their interview MR.MOHIT, then have you joined the organisation???? Were you interviewed for ARTICLESHIP or as a CA????? You are talking about XBRL and newspapers. I agree you are really very updated about the world, the economy and India. If you are so sensible and updated, KINDLY LET US ALSO KNOW YOUR UPDATED STATUS..WHETHER YOU ARE A C.A. OR STILL AN ARTICLE.

AND REMEMBER THE DOCTORS DON'T NEED AN INTERVIEW TO BE CONDUCTED BECAUSE THEY ARE MEANT FOR SERVING PEOPLE AND 85% OF DOCTORS DO THEIR PRACTICE. ONLY FEW OF THEM JOIN THE GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE HOSPITALS WHICH THEY CAN VERY WELL DO THROUGH THE GOVERNMENT OPENINGS ON THEIR SITES. BUT THE PROFESSION OF CA IS JOINED BY NEARLY 100% OF US TO EARN(BOTH MONEY & REPECT). AND THE PREVIOUS RECORD THAT CAs INITIALLY GET THE PACKAGE OF 5 LACS, 5.5 LACS AND SO ON, ON AN AVG; INITIATED US TO JOIN THE CA COURSE. BUT WAT ARE THE RESULTS???? JUST OF PACKAGE OF 4 LACS(BECAUSE THAT IS THE MAXIMUM A CA FIRM PAYS TO A FRESHER). WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN GOING INTO PRACTICE, YOU ARE FORCED TO GO.

SO WE ARE NOT WRONG IN BLAMING OUR INSTI. IF WE GET A PACKAGE OF Rs. 4LACS, THEN WAT GOOD WE DID BECOMING A CA??? MY COUNTERPARTS WHO'VE DONE MBA, EVEN FROM SMALL COLLEGES GET THIS MUCH PACKAGE. AND IT IS THEIR INSTI WHICH PROVIDES THEM JOBS.

Lack of communication skills & practical knowledge could also be the reason for Low packages.

PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS CAN BE TESTED ONLY UPON BEING INTERVIEWED. THESE ARE NOT THE KEY REASONS FOR LOW PACKAGES. I KNOW CAs WHO ARE EVEN WORKING AT 12000. AND MAXIMUM CAs ACCEPT THE OFFER IN A CA FIRM BETWEEN 20000-25000. AND EVEN IN THE INDUSTRY CAs ARE READY TO WORK EVEN AT 4 AND 4.5 LACS PACKAGE. THE OVERALL INDUSTRY AVG HAS FALLEN BECAUSE OF EXCESS SUPPLY THAN DEMAND. REMENBER THE DEMAND SUPPLY CONCEPT????

CA Ashada jhadav sir,,, 1st para. is awesome,, bolti band kar di,,, sorry for this language but still MR. JHADHAV point is correct,,,, MOHIT sir u shud update urself ((there is a say in hindi--- dusro ko sikh dene se pehle khud uspe chalna chahiye))

let me clear u dat communication skills are just supllement to the degree,,,, if u are not getting placed than its a demand- supply factor,, not only ur skills,,,

now as i said we need to improve ourselves too but dat dosen't mean its all our fault,,,,,

i remember at the time CA U.P. agrawal,, the packages were higher,, so there must be leak in INSTI.'s policy now,,

and literally there will be a day when MBAs and CAs will have same condition may be worst........

DEAR ANSHUL..YOU NEED NOT BE SO WORRIED AND THINK ABOUT LEAVING THE COURSE. SINCE YOUR ARTICLESHIP HAS STARTED, YOU MUST HAVE TRAVELLED A LONG WAY. SO NO POINT THINKING ABOUT CHANGE IN CAREER. BUT I WOULD DEFINITELY LIKE TO SUGGEST YOU TO START CS OR MBA IN FINANCE ALONG WITH CA.SO WHEN YOU BECOME A CA, YOU WILL DEFINITELY HAVE AN ADVANTAGE OVER OTHERS. AND THNGS WILL CHANGE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THE PROBLEM NOW IS THERE IS RECESSION AND EXCESS SUPPLY. BOTH THESE FACTORS HAVE AFFECTED THE POSITION OF CAs.

ANSHUL, SORRY BUT IT'S NOT MR. AKSHADA BUT MS. AKSHADA..

ANYWAZ.. THANKS FOR YOUR LIKING MY COMMENT

SIR i have completed my B.Com.,, so i'll registring for CS inter soon,,

but these things came to my mind while i was travelling in local ,, i met 3 CA (just passed),,, they cleared all attempts in 1st attempt still seating for a good co.,, they were working with their principals as they got no call for jobs,, they were CS too,, 

so i was in aghast,, that if this is the situation ryt now,, wat will happen after 2 years (4 attempts)!!!!!!

YA THAT'S GUD... BUT YOU SHOULD MAKE UP YOUR MIND FOR PRACTICE RITE FROM NOW. THAT WILL HELP YOU AFTER YOU CLEAR YOU CA XAMS.

But i don't wanna go for PRACTISING,,,,, not at all,,,, I want job in sevice sector,,,, isn't it wrong that u have cracked CA,, toughest course in COMMERCE field and still u have no choice for ur future,,,,

its like doing IIM na,,,, they get packages n crores tooo,,,,,

Damn,, i won't be leaving CA but MR. PRESI (ICAI) shud do sumthing,,, (unhone to bahot kama liya ab hame bhi to kamane do yaar).........

what the hell do you think about yourself.. if you dont have guts to grab good job then you will point icai. and regarding updating my status... i am not a frequent visitor on caclubindia. And if you guys think that linking updating with economy and my status is concurrent, better clear your concept. After becoming ca, majority of the ca's assume that job will come to them, and its not like that. I applied to 10 companies daily after becoming ca. Regarding p&g i was just trying to convey the message that it entirly depends upon individual to grab the opportunity. If you think making fun here on this forum can help you out.. please continue. Basically you are a cowered, who only can blame perstijious institute ICAI. Just see, you are enjoying the apperciation from a kid. You guys really feel updating my status will sync the issue. Disgusting !!
