His message reinforced the importance of adaptability, communication, and emotional intelligence as essential professional attributes.
The Board of Studies (Academic), led by CA Babu Abraham Kallivayalil, announced expanded Live Virtual Classes and Open House Query Sessions to support students preparing for the September 2026 exams. These initiatives, accessible via the BoS mobile app, aim to make learning flexible and interactive. The Chairman also reported strong participation in mock tests, with over 56,000 students registered, reflecting ICAI’s growing digital engagement.
Meanwhile, CA Rajesh Sharma, Chairman of the Board of Studies (Operations), states that ethics, humility, and perseverance are cornerstones of success. He celebrated the success of SPARK workshops and the Career Udaan counselling programme, which have guided thousands of commerce students toward informed career choices.
The journals also feature academic capsules on Advanced Financial Management, Strategic Management, and Quantitative Aptitude, alongside interviews with toppers and updates on campus placements, where the highest CTC reached ₹27.5 lakh per annum.
With its dual focus on professional competence and personal growth, ICAI’s May 2026 journals reflect a forward‑looking vision: empowering Chartered Accountants to lead with integrity, innovation, and global relevance.
