Father's teachings and self-confidence made him a CA topper. Rajan Kabra's story will touch the heart of every youth

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India has released the results of the CA Final 2025. Rajan Kabra has topped this exam.

"Son, worry about learning, not marks" This one lesson of his father changed Rajan Kabra's life. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has declared the results of CA Final 2025 and this time the eyes of the whole country are on the youth who topped by scoring 516 out of 600 marks in the first attempt - Rajan Kabra.

At the age of just 22, when many students are preparing for the exam for the first time, Rajan not only passes the final but also secures the first position in the country. But this journey was not easy.

Father's words helped more than books

Rajan's father himself is a CA. Whenever he got tired and felt like giving up, his father would say – “Respect your hard work, not rank”. His mother would take care of every small and big thing at home so that her son could focus only on his studies. His sister is a doctor, and she always kept encouraging him.

Rajan says that his father never put pressure on him for marks. He said that if you have prepared honestly, then your work will never go in vain.

How many hours of study

Rajan used to study for about 12 hours every day. There were times when he felt that he would not be able to do it now. But then he would remember that this is not just an exam, it is his family's dream. And then he would open the book once again. He says that he made friends with the most difficult subjects. He studied again and again, understood and never considered himself inferior.

Social media did not become an enemy, it became a friend

Where today's youth get lost in social media, Rajan used it as a tool. He cleared topics from YouTube, watched lectures and kept distance from other apps. Rajan says that distraction is certain, but if you control yourself, then the same thing becomes helpful.
