  • Hi, I am Mukesh Goel, a Chartered Accountant (CA) and Managing Partner at Mukesh Raj & Co.
  • As a Hindi medium student, I was of the opinion that the Big 4 was out of my league.
  • But the confidence to start something of my own showed me the way.
  • After not getting a client for a year, in 1998 the founder of Indiamart.com walked in and it changed the course of my firm.

Qualifying as a CA after multiple attempts      

Hailing from Bareilly, India my early school life was pretty average. But in 10th grade, my teacher’s immense encouragement pushed me to study diligently.

While pursuing my graduation in Commerce, I saw one of my cousins studying to become a CA.

I don’t know why but knowing that it was one of the most coveted professions, I picked this path.
