In the past, there was a misconception that becoming a Chartered Accountant (CA) was an extremely arduous task, only succeeded by the top of the student crowd. Many students with higher grades in class 10 traditionally pursued the science stream, while those with lower grades opted for commerce. The select few commerce aspirants who were passionate about pursuing professions like CA had to struggle a lot to access proper training and education due to the lack of easily accessible opportunities and a structured syllabus and curriculum.

Moreover, students had to rely on self-study and CA professionals, acquire materials through registration, and take tuition classes for some subjects.
