Not quite sure.. Would be best to contact ICAP and ask them.

Why would you want to enter into CA after 7 years in banking and having done MBA, Masters in finance and Bachelors in finance? Why not go towards CFA instead?

Almode i was asking what would be slary if articleship is not done from big four???
Articleship's stipend (salary) is set by ICAP. ICAP has recommended 6500rs minimum for Icap Trainees. However the stipend rates are revised and from June 30th the minimum stipend is 8000rs. If you pass module E your stipend is 11,000 and if you pass module F within articles then your stipend is 30,000rs. I dont know any firm which is paying more stipend then the minimum set by ICAP.. However if you get an ICAEW contract in EY or in BDO or some other firm.. I heard they pay you 10,000rs.


What articles?
You're doing CA and you dont know what articles are ? :S

which is the best place to study for ca from, here in Karachi?

If people could mention from where they studied for ca from, which institute? and do firms prefer students from specific institutes over the others?

I'm planning on starting ca after I'm done with my papers in a few months. I can't seem to decide from where to study from.

Oh i get it now.

Well unfortunately if you dont do articles from big 4 it reduces your value significantly. You can expect to earn 20-25k less then what you would've if you would've done your articles from the big 4. Its very important to get into a big 4 firm because in Pakistan, the firms apart from the big 4 are very small and usually don't have any big clients either.

To be honest, it doesnt really matter to firms from where you have studied A-D as long as you've passed them in very less number of attempts. Most firms when advertising for trainees induction mention which batch numbers they will consider. If you've passed your papers within 2-3 attempts then you would be eligible to apply, Otherwise they wont consider.
But from all the institutes TSA does have a good facility but lately most of their facility is going to Al-Hamd.. So i would suggest to take some papers from TSA some from Al hamd..

Good to see a Chartered Accountancy thread on Gamers community. Being a student of CA and an audit trainee myself, my overview about this field:-

- CA is meant for hard-working students (Gamers please step back :p)
- Quality of education and passing criteria is quite high
- CA is not too expensive as compared with other Accountancy degrees
- Students working in top firms and second tier firms get a different level of exposure in the industry. Getting into top 4 firms requires excellent track record or strong references
- After all the hardships you face during your CA program, you come out as a true professional who can work in tough environments and deliver.
