In order to prove that Indian CAs can also study western courses and prove that they are equally good in achieving these degrees, Took up the challenge & complete CPA in one go in 2003.
Apart from that 18+ years in varied industries – audit, manufacturing, construction and airline- has definitely boosted my confidence. The level of automation foreseen and achieved in my current job is really worth noting.
