Nandini Agrawal From MP Becomes Youngest Female CA And Guinness World Record Holder At Age 19
Chartered Accountancy (CA) is one of India's most challenging exams, with thousands of students competing to succeed each year. However, only a few manage to win, fueled by tireless hard work and determination. Among these exceptional individuals is Nandini Agrawal, who not only cleared the CA exam but also clinched All India Rank (AIR) 1 at the age of just 19. In doing so, she became India’s youngest female Chartered Accountant and gained a Guinness World Record for this remarkable achievement.
Hailing from Morena, a small town in Madhya Pradesh, Nandini’s academic journey has been extraordinary. Since the beginning, she was more advanced compared to her fellow classmates as she skipped two grades. She was as young as 13 years old when she appeared in her Class 10 board exam and subsequently for her Class 12 board exams at age 15. When she turned 19 in the year 2021, she made history when she cleared the CA final exam with an extraordinary mark of 614 on 800 and won the prized position of AIR 1.
Her family has also achieved success. Her older brother, Sachin Agrawal, secured AIR 18 in the same year with 568 marks. The success of this sibling pair is proof of their diligence and commitment.
Nandini started her education at Victor Convent Higher Secondary School, where she passed her Class 11 and 12. Upon clearing the CA exam, Nandini targeted another aspiration winning a Guinness World Record. In February 2023, after months of wait and doubt, her patience ultimately paid off as she got the official mail confirming her title, as per the media reports.
Nandini today is not only a successful CA, but a corporate professional too, having worked with some of the biggest world-renowned companies. In addition to her professional success, she is an active sharer of her motivational story on numerous platforms, making her a popular speaker and content creator with a huge following.
Nandini Agrawal's tale is an inspiration for all, highlighting the strength of commitment, hard work, and an unstoppable chase for dreams.
