At 23, Sarthak Ahuja possibly youngest Indian to get CA, CS, CMA degrees

Sarthak Ahuja of has possibly become the youngest in to have passed the chartered accountancy, company secretary, cost and management accountancy courses, as well as a graduate degree in bachelors of finance and investment analysis from the Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies, University of Delhi, all by the age of 23.
Earlier, Pallavi Sachdeva of Delhi was the first to complete the CA, CS and CMA with a graduate degree from DU by 23 years of age, but Ahuja's achievements have proven that men are no far behind.
What makes Sarthak's achievement noteworthy is that he has cleared all of his exams in the first attempt without taking any coaching for any of the subjects in the courses of CA, CS and CMA.
As the business for CA, CS and CMA coaching continues to grow tremendously in India, Sarthak stands as an example of achieving such educational distinction through personal organized self study and hard work.
According to him, fear of these institutes' curriculum drives most students to coaching institutes; whereas a
simple attempt at studying from the institutes' official study material, practice manuals, revisionary test papers and suggested answers is the key to cracking the exams.
