What were you doing at 19? Nandini Agrawal was already making history in the world of Chartered Accountancy.
Hailing from Morena, Madhya Pradesh, Nandini cleared the CA Final (New) examination in July 2021 at just 19 years, 8 months and 18 days.
Her achievement earned her a place in the Guinness World Records as the world’s youngest female Chartered Accountant. She also secured All India Rank 1, scoring 614 out of 800 marks, or 76.75%, among more than 83,000 candidates.
Her academic journey had started years earlier. Nandini skipped two grades in primary school, completed Class 10 at just 13 and Class 12 at 15.
She cleared the CA Intermediate examination at 16, securing AIR 31, before continuing toward the final stage of one of India’s most challenging professional courses.
Her brother Sachin Agrawal also appeared in the same CA Final examination and achieved an impressive AIR 18, making the siblings’ achievement even more remarkable.
Nandini’s story is a powerful example of how early focus, consistent preparation and determination can lead to extraordinary academic achievements.
From a young student in Morena to a Guinness World Record holder and CA topper, her journey continues to inspire aspiring Chartered Accountants across India.
