  • Hi! I am Anoop Jagetia, a proud Company Secretary and a partly Qualified Accountant from India.
  • My CA journey started off well, cleared the first two levels, and completed my articles with a Big 4 firm PwC…but I hit a roadblock when I kept failing in my CA Final exams!
  • What Next? I quit CA and pursued Company Secretary, and started all over!
  • However, after all that effort I was offered a meager yearly salary of only $6000 in an expensive city like Mumbai!
  • So I decided to start my own CS Consulting & Accounting firm for clients in UK, USA, and NRIs. 
  • Read my story to know how I happened to turn around my career even after several failures.

Going back in time – Chartered Accountancy or Company Secretary?

I belong to Bhilwara, the Textile City of Rajasthan (India).

Growing up in a community where most of my family and friends were Chartered Accountants, I too decided to pursue Chartered Accountancy.

2009. I enrolled for the CA course with the ICAI (The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) and moved to Mumbai to achieve my dreams.
