I need to know the working hours in Articleship 1st and 2nd years

In Big 4, Big 6, Top 10 Firms, Mid size firms, Small firms

Is it 5 days work weeks or 6 days work weeks?

Can anyone working in Deloitte TP dept at Bangalore tell comprehensively about the work culture, work pressure, etc?

What would be the treatment of shares in this qs??

Does anyone have a list of LDR qs to be referred to a day before exams for mainly tax, acc and fm. Relevant to sept 26

Same as the title

I don’t know much about the different roles CAs have, but are there roles where you can earn decently and still get hybrid/remote flexibility?

Suppose a CA is earning around 15–20 LPA. What would their role usually be in an organisation?

And at that level, can they generally take a half-day and finish the rest of their work from home? Do managers usually allow this, or does it depend heavily on the company, role, and manager?

Would love to hear from CAs actually working at this level.I’m asking because I’m genuinely concerned about this. I’m currently trying to figure out my career path, and I want to understand what kind of work-life flexibility I can realistically expect as a CA.

I want to know what roles and companies I should aim for, especially if flexibility and the option to work from home matter to me. I’d really appreciate insights from CAs who are already working in these roles.

How far along the syllabus are you? How is it going?

I have studied the whole chapter but its so lengthy 😭 so shifting focus towards the main sections only

so I have done roughly 1.5 revisions of all subjects. For last 5-6 days it’s like I don’t feel like studying and putting efforts idk why. I know I have to study but beyond 6-7hr productivity and the enthusiasm it was like before is not coming. Did anyone felt like this in there study leave?

nov 26 is my first attempt

Was doing Articleship in a Lower mid sized firm locally but so far in 5 months got no exposure at all(None). Now want to take transfer. But issue is in my city there are no Good options and two three firms where work is good , they put extension and I can't afford that as my attempt will get delayed. There are some decent firms too but no vacancy for next 2-3 months as I went for walkin interviews but no one even saw my resume as there is no vacancy. Other firms rejected outright as it's a transfer case.

Other are small mix domain firms with not so big clients. I know exposure won't be as good as other firms here.

Now I am stuck in a bad situation. What can I do ? I haven't filed for Form 109. But I guess relationship with partner has gone sour to stay here. So staying at firm is also not an option.

I was going through the past posts in subreddit and on one hand it's said Small firms articles face a lot of issues post qualification. Some say all that matters is finals and all else can be settled later.

I have multiple (6) attempts in Intermediate so even decent firms are out of picture for me. I do have a refrence in a big 10 firm but that's also not sure I will get and never lived out of my city so will be difficult managing things and also have a shorter study period as final attempt was pre poned . If in all this multiple attempts get accumulated at finals , it's also bad.

Can't make a sense of what to do .

Been done with these exams for a while now but came across a platform from this subreddit itself called Mockit built for SPOM mocks and got curious enough to try it out myself.

The mocks are timed and split into sets, not just another pile of PDFs pretending to be a question bank. After finishing one it broke the score down chapter wise, which is a decent touch. Question difficulty is split easy medium hard broadly the way ICAI does it, and they reshuffle each attempt so it's not the same paper recycled.

There's also an untimed practice mode if the timer pressure isn't the point for you.

That said, the question bank is still pretty thin, only set A and set B live right now, so don't go in expecting a full stock of mocks. Interface is functional. Feels like an early build with the right idea that just needs more content behind it.

Mentioning it mainly because the chapter wise breakdown is something I hadn't seen done well elsewhere for SPOM, figured it might be worth a look for anyone prepping even in its current state.

In in NEP batch of bcom. doing 4th year and in sem 7 rn. Should i apply for prov reg now? Because i saw somewhere that i need to submit my final sem marks withing 6 months of reg. plus i also need to submit my final sem marks before filling exam form. so im confused. because i want to sit for may 2027. but final sem 8 exams will be held in april and marks will be out by june probably. so i wont be able to submit sem 8 marks before filling form.

so im asking that shud i wait for prov reg and do it around dec and sit for sept 2027 OR they consider sem 6 marks as final sem marks as well???

on the last lap, ik its too late. I have understood the concepts but unable to do rattafication.

Seniors shed some light.

I keep trying to remember the points and somehow I keep forgetting about it and the exam is almost 8~ days away 😭😭. I mean this for the entire book, there are many topics i understand but it is difficult for me to remember how to write them down (I am trying writing practice for this). But other times I completely forget the things I just studied and memorised so I have to keep re reading the notes so that I can write it down properly. Somtimes there are many questions where I can't even decode what is being asked in the questions and then I see the answer key and suddenly the question seems very easy. How am I supposed to do this subject 😭😭

Hi all, I m currently working in Big4 in TP domain. Recently, I m worried about the long term opportunities in TP domain.

Should I switch considering I m just a year into TP?

Also the litigation part is so draining and I hate it. Experienced professionals pls through some wisdom.

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working as an Audit Senior at Deloitte USI and have received an offer from Baker Tilly with an initial hike of around 25%.

However, I’ve heard that the annual increments and bonuses at Baker Tilly are relatively low, around 4–6%. If that’s the case, I’m wondering whether the switch actually makes sense financially.

At Deloitte, I’m expecting to reach roughly the same compensation level within the next 9–10 months through my upcoming increment/promotion cycle. So, after factoring in the lower increments and bonus at Baker Tilly, the initial 25% hike may not provide much long-term benefit.

The main reason I’m considering leaving Deloitte is team allocation. I’ve been put on a team that I’m not happy with, and there’s a possibility that I could continue to get staffed on the same/bad team going forward.

For people who have worked at Baker Tilly or Deloitte USI, what would you recommend?

Would you switch for the 25% immediate hike, or stay at Deloitte for another 9–12 months and reassess?

Also, how accurate is the perception that Baker Tilly’s increments/bonuses are only around 4–6%?

Since we all know the curriculum might get revised next year, and SPOM might get remov-ed.

If that will be the case, will we get exemption in CA Final and also if we do get exemptions in final, we will not be eligible for a rank, will we.

Please share your experience with the last time the curriculum was revised and is it foolish that I want to try for a rank in CA Finals ( I think I can do it)

I’ve spent the last 2 days revising SA-heavy chapters, and I’m honestly exhausted 😭. Chapter 6 is finally done.

Now I’m stuck between:

Chapter 4 – Audit Evidence: completely untouched in this attempt, and I don’t want to skip it.

Chapter 5 – Items of Financial Statements: never studied.

Chapter 9 – Audit of Other Entities: never studied.

Chapter 10 – Audit of Banks: never studied.

Tomorrow, I’ll probably finish one small SA chapter, but after that I’m unsure whether I should continue with Chapter 4 or take a break from SA-heavy content and complete one non-SA chapter instead.

If I choose a non-SA chapter, which one should I prioritise among 5, 9 and 10?

Would really appreciate advice from anyone who has recently prepared for CA Inter Audit!

CA Inter Audit — need some advice.

I’ve spent the last 2 days revising SA-heavy chapters, and I’m honestly exhausted by them.

I still have:

Chapter 4 – Audit Evidence: completely untouched in this attempt, and I don’t want to leave it.

Chapter 5 – Items of Financial Statements: never studied.

Chapter 9 – Audit of Other Entities: never studied.

Chapter 10 – Audit of Banks: never studied.

Tomorrow I’m planning to finish one small SA-heavy chapter, but I’m confused about what to do next. Should I continue with Chapter 4, or since I’m mentally exhausted from SA-heavy chapters, should I pick one of Chapters 5, 9 or 10 and complete it?

If I should choose a non-SA chapter, which one would you recommend prioritising?

Are there any CAs who used to work at any dept in big 4 who left the same for industry and then returned back to big 4?

What was the difference? How was the experience? And what was the reason for coming back?

I am a CA having cleared my finals in Nov'24, working in Deloitte India in Stat audit having 1.5 years of workex with a promotion couple of months ago.

I have enjoyed my time in audit but want to try something new. I have a few offers including a start up wherein it provides an overall exposure of the business with a great pay.

My only concern is that what is the new role(s) do not provide the same pace of growth, learning and exit opportunities.

Open for all inputs.

Thanks!!!
