No age bar for learning: 71-year-old Jaipur man cracks CA final after retirement
RAJASTHAN : In a world that celebrates youthful achievement, 71-year-old Tarachand Agarwal from Jaipur has quietly rewritten the narrative of what's possible. The retired banker has passed one of India's toughest exams — the chartered accountancy (CA) final — at an age when most people slow down. With this, he hasn't just added a new feather to his cap but has become a beacon of inspiration for generations. A result that made headlines On July 6, when the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) declared the CA final results, a name stood out — Tarachand Agarwal, a retiree among a crowd of mostly twenty-something aspirants. While most would hesitate to pick up an academic pursuit after retirement, Agarwal not only attempted it — he aced it. The septuagenarian hails from Sangaria in Hanumangarh district. He completed his schooling there and began his banking career with the State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur (now SBI) in 1976. Over 38 years, he climbed the ranks to retire as assistant general manager in 2014. Life after retirement was content until tragedy struck. In November 2020, during the Covid pandemic, Agarwal lost his wife Darshana — his companion of over four decades. The grief was unbearable. 'We used to spend almost 21 hours a day together. When she left, I was completely shattered,' he recalls. Sinking into depression, Agarwal sought solace in spiritual reading — particularly the Bhagavad Gita. It became a turning point. 'The Gita made me realise that life is a battle, like the Mahabharata. You cannot escape it — you must face it with courage,' he says. With renewed clarity, he decided to reclaim purpose. Initially considering MCom or a PhD, it was his sons Lalit and Amit — a Delhi-based CA and a tax consultant, respectively — and granddaughter Ankika who nudged him toward something more challenging. 'Why not CA?' they asked. And just like that, his journey began.

Lokesh tells CAs to be acquainted and updated with their subject
IT and HRD Minister Nara Lokesh on Saturday called upon the chartered accountants (CA) to be fully acquainted and updated with their subject and gear up to handle advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI). He also appreciated the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) for being the first in the world to implement forensic accounting standards. Addressing a mega student meet of the ICAI titled 'Spoorthi'in Guntur, Mr. Lokesh said that despite completing 76 years, the institute remained an accounting powerhouse and has been a major strength of the Indian financial system. He observed that the importance of CA could be understood from the fact that every budget-approved file required an auditor's seal, and added they were drivers of the country's economic growth. The State government has always valued the inputs given by the ICAI on various matters of financial administration and would keep consulting it for policymaking, he added. Mr. Lokesh insisted that the CA play a significant role in achieving the Prime Minister's vision of Viksit Bharat, which aims to make India a $30 trillion economy by 2047. He stated that in today's world, not only IQ but technology quotient (TQ) was also essential to stay ahead. 'Let us all work together to steer India and Andhra Pradesh towards progress. The future belongs to you, and the government will stand by you,' Mr. Lokesh said. Guntur West MLA Galla Madhavi, ICAI vice-president D. Prasanna Kumar, ICAI south India regional council vice-chairman Muppalla Subba Rao, Guntur branch chairman N. Rajashekhar, South India CA Students' Association Guntur branch chairman Chinta Raghunandan, vice-chairperson B. Jhansi Lakshmi, secretary V.V. Naresh and others took part.

AI is empowering chartered accountants, says ICAI president
Pune: The increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionising the accounting profession, making chartered accountants (CAs) more technologically adept and future-ready, said CA Charanjot Singh Nanda. He is the president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and was speaking at the inaugural session of the AI Innovation Summit 2025 in Pune. The two-day national summit, themed "Transforming Accounting, Audit, Tax and Governance," was organised by ICAI at Baner and drew participation from more than 1,000 CA members, students and dignitaries. "AI is the future. Indian Chartered Accountants must not only understand this technology but also learn to harness its full potential. ICAI has launched structured certificate training programmes and is incorporating AI into the CA curriculum from 2027. Over 500 AI training sessions were held so far, training 25,000 CAs across the country," Nanda said.
