Dear Future Chartered Accountants,

“Greatness doesn’t come from what you have, it comes from what you give. ”

Each month, EICASA continues its journey with a singular purpose: to empower the CA student community, not just with knowledge but with the mindset, tools, and exposure needed to become future-ready professionals. The month of July has been a shining example of that mission in motion.

We began the month with the National Talent Search 2025 – Regional Level, which was more than just a competition. It was a celebration of excellence, confidence, and collaboration. From compelling debates and pitch decks to articulate speeches and insightful essays, students displayed a spectrum of talents that go beyond the pages of textbooks. The kind of energy, preparation, and depth that each participant brought was areminder that the future of the profession is in very capable hands.

Our focus then shifted to academic preparedness with the Mock Test Series I for Intermediate and Final students held from 21st to 26th July. These tests are not just preparatory tools. They are opportunities for self-reflection, time management practice, and performance tracking. It is heartening to see students engage with them seriously, using every attempt as a stepping stone toward success in the main examination.

We also understand that today ’ s Chartered Accountant must be both technically sound and technologically fluent. That is why our Skill Development Workshops in July were curated to introduce students to practical tools that will define tomorrow ’ s workplace. Whether it was Excel and Power Query, Google Workspace, ChatGPT, Python, or Tally integrations, each session was designed to help students think beyond compliance, to innovate, to analyze, and to lead.

Looking ahead, August holds critical opportunities. We continue to support students appearing in the September attempt with extended Mock Test Series for Foundation, Intermediate, and Final. But perhaps even more importantly, we prepare to host the EICASA Articleship Placement Programme on 10th August, a significant initiative to bridge the gap between aspiring articles and the firms that are actively shaping the future of the profession.

To each of you reading this: your commitment is your greatest asset. Stay consistent in your preparation, stay open to learning, and continue participating actively in everything EICASA has to offer. These are the moments that will shape your confidence, your career, and your character.

Let us keep the momentum strong as we step into August with purpose, passion, and pride.

Warm Regards,

CA Mayur Agrawal

Chairman, EICASA & Vice Chairman, EIRC (2025 – 26)
