Mangalore: Mangaluru girl Ruth Clare D’silva has brought laurels to the city and Dakshina Kannada district by securing All India first rank (Old scheme) in the Chartered Accountants (CA) July 2021 examination conducted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).

The results of the exams were declared on Monday evening where Ruth Clare secured the national first rank.

Her mentor and Convenor of Centre for Integrated Learning (CIL) Mr.S.

Nandagopal remarked that Ruth has created history. She is an example of a ‘never quit’ attitude and consistently pursued exam after exams for the past couple of years without deterring a bit... It’s a miracle and never expected, remarked her parents.

The celebrations already began and Ruth’s home is trickling with visitors and her phone ringing without a break. The success is still to sink into Ruth yet. She said that this year's exam was tough but I had given my best. Rank was never even imagined, clearing the CA exam itself is great.

She had stood district first rank in the CPT exam four years ago.

Ruth did her schooling in St. Theresa School and an Undergraduate course from Mangalore University Distance Education.

The CA Final examinations were held between July 5 and July 19. The CA Final (Old scheme) Group 1 examination was conducted on July 5, 7, 9, and 11, and the CA Final (old scheme) Group 2 exams were conducted on July 13, 15, 17, and 19.
