Delighted to share that I’ve joined the Chairman’s Office at Aditya Birla Group. I’m excited about the opportunity to work at the intersection of strategy and execution, and to continue learning in a highly dynamic environment.

Recently qualified CA but feeling stuck? I cracked Aditya Birla Group, and it felt like a dream come true. Like many CAs, I started my career in Audit. I always wanted to build a career in Core Finance and Management Consulting. After the CA 2026 results, many CAs reached out to me for help and job referrals. I asked: Are you dreaming of ₹25 LPA+ and a career in Investment Banking, Corporate Finance, or Management Consulting, but only getting Audit opportunities? FMBV Certification with 100% Placements Assistance helps transition from Audit to Core Finance. Apply now : https://lnkd.in/dHHR6PBc The interview panel wanted to know: 1. Can you build institutional-grade 3-Statement Financial Models with scenario and sensitivity analysis? 2. Can you perform DCF, Trading Comps, Precedent Transactions, SOTP, Market Value, and LBO Valuations? 3. Can you leverage AI, LLMs, and Financial Intelligence Platforms to automate research and analysis? 4. Can you build executive-level dashboards using Excel, Power BI, BQ and AI Analytics? I gained a lot of practical exposure which helped me for securing a high paying job. If you’re a CA or finance aspirant dreaming of a career in Equity Research, Investment Banking, Private Equity, or FP&A, it’s time to start upskilling yourself.

I secured AIR 43 in CA Finals. And no, I didn’t study 18 hours a day. Was it luck? Big no. Was it only hard work? Also no. I didn’t have a secret strategy. Just a few simple rules that I stuck to, especially when I didn’t feel like it. 1. Coaching was non-negotiable. If class was at 7 AM, I was there at 6:55. If I missed a session, I cleared the backlog within 48 hours. No excuses. 2. During articleship, I communicated my leave expectations at least 6 months in advance to avoid last-minute shocks. And yes, club your comp-offs with exam leave. It makes a difference. 3. I planned a routine for my study leave well in advance. I had a minimum daily standard. Some days were 10-hour days. Some were 4-hour days. But zero days? Not allowed. The needle needs to move even on bad days. 4. Revision was my real strategy. No new material in the last 1.5 months. Only revision cycles. Maximum retention > Maximum coverage 5. I reduced comparison during prep. I stopped asking, “How much have you finished?” Noise creates panic and reduces performance. If you are preparing right now, remember: “You don’t need superhuman motivation. You need a minimum standard.” Protect that long enough and results stop being surprises. What’s one habit that made the biggest difference in your CA journey? #CA #CARank #jobs #Big4
