Ishaan Tops CA Intermediate Exam In Bhopal With Air 15

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Ishaan Mukesh Mangal has topped the CA Intermediate Examination from the Bhopal centre with AIR 15. He scored 79.33% marks in the exam.

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) released the results for the examination on Wednesday. Ishaan told Free Press that he was expecting a good rank but never expected AIR 15.

He said that consistency is his success mantra and he did a target-based study, devoting around 10 hours every day to studies. He mostly focused on multiple revisions after completing classes.

“I had made a clear plan for my preparation after the Foundation results. I divided the time of around 9 months into phases. In the first four months, I completed all the subjects and taxation of Group-2.

After this, the revision started with the preparation of Group-1 subjects. In the last two and a half months, I focused only on revision,” he said.

Besides, Manya Goswami (64.50%) secured the second position in Bhopal, while Mohit Kachhwani (62.83%) and Nandini Gupta (62.83%) jointly got the third position.

Saksham Agrawal (58.67%) stood fourth. Successful students will now prepare for the CA Final examination and simultaneously begin their two-year articleship.
