Edited By Sansar Singh Chhikara | Updated on Jul 12, 2024 04:33 PM IST | #CA Final Exam
It was a feeling of overjoy and great pride for Ghilman Saalim Ansari when he saw his CA Final May 2024 results. Ghilman secured an All India Rank 3 in the CA Final May 2024 exam. Hailing from Mumbai, the CA Final May 2024 topper dreams of having his own CA firm one day. Ghilman’s father is also a Company Secretary and the he credits him for the motivation to become a Chartered Accountant. Talking about his CA journey, Ghilman says he faced a hard time during his CA Intermediate exams, but he never lost hope as good things come to those who wait. Apart from the CA title, the topper also holds a B.Com degree, which he says was his backup plan in case CA does not work out.
CA Final May 2024 exams were conducted from May 2 to 16, 2024. CA Final result May 2024 was declared on July 11, 2024.
Careers360 catched up with the CA Final May 2024 topper for a brief interaction. Here are some excerpts from the CA Final May 2024 topper interview:
What was the feeling when you first saw your rank? Was it on expected lines?
Before the CA Final results were declared, I received a call from the President of ICAI, CA. Ranjeet Kumar Agarwal, where he informed me that I had secured AIR 3. I was overjoyed and a little surprised too to achieve it. Even though I was very confident about my result and was hoping for a good rank, achieving 3rd rank was beyond my expectations.
Tell us briefly about your family and educational background.
We are a family of four, my father is a Company Secretary, my mother is a housewife and my brother is an MBA.
What made you choose Chartered Accountancy?
I had to make a career choice after 12th, so I went for CA exams preparation while simultaneously pursuing B. Com. I took this decision thinking that so even in the worst case scenario, I end up with at least one degree.
What was your preparation strategy for the CA Final exam?
I focused more on self-study and used to refer to revision videos on YouTube whenever I faced any difficulty while preparing. Talking about my daily schedule, I used to study for around 12-14 hours daily during my five months study period.
Can you shed some light on your CA journey so far from CA Foundation / Inter to now finally clearing the CA Final exams? Did you find it tough or was there any point you felt you should pursue something else?
Even though I faced difficulty during my CA Inter exams, I was very motivated to perform good the in CA Finals. I was completely focused on finishing the CA Course and never thought of pursuing anything else until I cleared my CA Exams.
The CA Final pass percentage is usually between 10-20%. In your opinion, what are the main challenges when preparing for the CA exam? What makes the exams so tough?
The difficult part of the course is managing studies while simultaneously undergoing articleship. The syllabus is vast and it requires lots and lots of revision and thorough practice to prepare for the exams.
What is your view about the ICAI new scheme of education and training? Does it really change anything?
The new scheme of ICAI is really beneficial for the students as now they have to undergo only 2 years of articleship training and the final examinations have only 6 subjects as compared to 8 and the 2 subjects are shifted to self-paced module so students can manage time for Final exams preparation
What are your future plans?
In the long term I plan to open my own Chartered Accountancy firm
What advice would you give to students who are aspiring to become CA?
I would advise future CA students to not lose hope till you clear the exams as good things come to those who wait.

Hi there,
First of all make plan that what are you going to study,for how many hours you are going to study a topic and on what you will focus on. Plan all these things so that you don't get distract while studying. Then maintain a timetable and follow it .
We all have same working hours but we don't utilize them properly so start utilizing your working hour according to your mental energy .
Always study in a peaceful environment so that you can learn more in less time that means effective study .
Now if you are talking pparticularly about commerce then you can divide subjects into two part
(A) Numerical portion: First clear you concepts and after that practice as much as you can for Numerical.
(B) THEORY Portion: Make notes and clear your concept and revise them.
Try to understand instead of just mugging up lessons so that you can remember it for long time .
And last but not least study with enthusiasm. Enjoy study . Don't take study as burden.
Hope it helps you.
Good luck!
