1
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,960
'People say that the life of a CA student
during articleship is quite hectic.'

2
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:22,600
'I disagree. The truth is,'

3
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,280
'a CA student during articleship'

4
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,200
'has no life to begin with.'

5
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,960
'Lately, my schedule has been'

6
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:41,160
'attending morning classes at 7 am.'

7
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,400
'Reporting to the office at 11 am.'

8
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,520
'Attending classes again at 7 pm.'

9
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,000
'Then, at 11 pm, I start studying
for the upcoming Group 2 exams.'

10
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,800
'And life goes on in a loop.'

11
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,480
'The date of the exam
keeps getting closer,'

12
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,360
'pressure keeps mounting'

13
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,080
'and the time I get to study
keeps decreasing constantly.'

14
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:20,840
Archie!

15
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,840
-Where to?
-I attend classes on Audit at 7 pm.

16
00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:29,920
What about GTK Industries' audit?

17
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,120
-You may leave after the meeting.
-Sir, my exams are around the corner.

18
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,200
I have already missed
the last three classes.

19
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,440
I can't afford it.

20
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,840
I have been a CA student.
I know classes are important.

21
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,200
But this audit is crucial.

22
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,000
We need to close it in two weeks.

23
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,600
We should also pay a factory visit.

24
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,160
In this situation,
we cannot afford any mess-up.

25
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:50,960
Only because of your attending classes,

26
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,880
what if we miss the deadline
for the audit?

27
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,720
Who will be responsible?

28
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,400
I hope you are responsible enough
to make the right decision.

29
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,080
Sir.

30
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,400
Chetan, did the class end soon?

31
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,800
Well, it had started early.

32
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,720
Sir had dropped a message in the group.

33
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:43,400
Didn't you check?

34
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:45,640
Come on, Archie.

35
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,680
Because of my office,
I missed the first 30 minutes.

36
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,000
Even after coming to the class,
I couldn't hear anything.

37
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,960
'I think our respective bosses have sworn'

38
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,440
'that soon after hiring
a student as an article,'

39
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,960
'they will become that
student's biggest enemy.'

40
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,040
'Neither will they give us time to study'

41
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,560
'nor to attend classes.'

42
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,640
'Nor will they allow us
to bitch about them in our thoughts.'

43
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,920
'I just hate articleship.'

44
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,160
Hello, sir.

45
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,360
-Hi!
-Hello.

46
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,680
Please come.

47
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,080
-Water?
-No. Thank you.

48
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,840
Stay Focused. Stay Positive.
Never Give Up.

49
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,160
So Niraj.

50
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:51,360
Please sit.

51
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,320
I've come to the 'Niraj Only Zone'
for the first time.

52
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,720
Let me explore it.

53
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:56,640
Okay.

54
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,600
May I?

55
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,240
Of course, you can. Please.

56
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,040
Not bad, Niraj.

57
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,960
I read somewhere that a messy room
leads to a messy mind. So...

58
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,760
Hey. I had given you this novel.

59
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,640
Yes. On my birthday.

60
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Well, a bigger gift
awaited me inside the novel.

61
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,000
The letter.

62
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,080
You read the letter

63
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,000
but the brand-new condition of
the novel indicates you never read it.

64
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,000
Well, actually, it so happened...

65
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,720
No. It's okay. I should have known.

66
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,200
Apart from CA books,
Niraj Goyal doesn't read anything.

67
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,600
No, I will read it now.

68
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,280
No. I'll keep it with me.

69
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,520
Why did I gift you a romantic novel?

70
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,040
Okay.

71
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,560
Well,

72
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,800
your calculator.

73
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,240
-Kavya.
-Niraj.

74
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:09,880
Don't be stubborn this time.

75
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,440
Keep it.

76
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,440
Niraj, if you think
a lot about the past,

77
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,120
it hampers the present and the future.

78
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,240
I think our present is going good.

79
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,320
Kavya, do you remember what you said

80
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,640
when you gave me this calculator
for the first time?

81
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,720
Keep it. It's lucky for you.

82
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,840
But, actually, for every exam
that I used this calculator,

83
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,920
I cleared it on my first attempt.

84
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,720
Ever since I returned it to you...

85
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,560
All right then, take it with you
while making your next attempt.

86
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:57,840
You will clear it for sure.

87
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,920
I anyway have high chances
of clearing it this time.

88
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,440
Why?

89
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,520
It's because you are with me.

90
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:09,720
That's why.

91
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,760
Hmm.

92
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,000
Shall we study?

93
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,160
Yes.

94
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,840
Come on.

95
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,200
-Chetan.
-Yes.

96
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,640
Sir covered a lot of topics.

97
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:31,920
Of course, he will.

98
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,880
Only 36 days are left for the exam.

99
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,760
He knows that the sooner
he completes the portions,

100
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,960
the sooner we can start our revision.

101
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,160
-Revision?
-Yes.

102
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,040
I hardly get time to study.

103
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,960
What do you do all day?

104
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,440
Articleship.

105
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,560
Archie, do you know that, in the second
group, we mostly have theory papers?

106
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,520
The more the theory,
the more to remember.

107
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,600
And more the number
of revisions required.

108
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,320
That means you will need more time.

109
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,000
You should have started by now.

110
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:02,920
I get no time from work.

111
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,160
From when did articles
start getting time to study?

112
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,240
The institute knew it.

113
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,240
That's why they have given students
the right to go on study leave.

114
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,240
-You should make use of it.
-Yes.

115
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,840
From when have you taken a study leave?

116
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,320
I never needed it.

117
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,920
I have a dummy.

118
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,880
Chetan, this is wrong.

119
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:22,560
What if you get caught?

120
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,720
We shall see what to do then.

121
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,800
For now, I know that
I do not want to do articleship.

122
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,800
With a calm mind, I want to
attend classes, not go to the office.

123
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,360
I want to make class notes,

124
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,800
not some notes to accounts
of some random company.

125
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,360
I want to secure a high rank on the exam

126
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,000
and bag a fat package
from a good company.

127
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,240
I don't want to do an internship that

128
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,080
offers a paltry 5000 rupees as a stipend.

129
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,160
You will have to learn this
once you become a CA.

130
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,680
But the point is, I will become a CA.

131
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,320
Pal, sir has announced a mock test again.

132
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,000
I wonder why he does it again and again.

133
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,000
None of the questions
from it appear in the exam.

134
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,440
No, perhaps, they do.

135
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,000
Appearing for mock tests increases
the concentration in exams.

136
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,200
That is important.

137
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,800
-I shall leave now.
-Where to?

138
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,480
It's a break. The classes will resume.

139
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,240
I'll catch up. You can help me later.

140
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,280
-Okay. Take care.
-So should you, brother.

141
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,280
The exam you are about to appear
for is way more tougher.

142
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,920
-Go now!
-All the best!

143
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,120
Thank you.

144
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:39,720
Hi!

145
00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:42,960
Hi. Are you done with the classes?

146
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,280
Yes. I mean... Almost.

147
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,240
What happened? Why are you so nervous?

148
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:49,880
Nervous? No.

149
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,800
Really? When was the last time
you bunked a class?

150
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,240
Well... It was long back.

151
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:58,920
Shall we?

152
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,880
Sir, I wanted your DSC.

153
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:27,600
Thank you.

154
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,160
Sir, I wanted to talk
about my study leave.

155
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,560
-I think I need approximately...
-Archie, did you make this?

156
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,520
Yes, sir.

157
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,080
Please explain what you have made.

158
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,640
Sir, we are about to start an audit of
GTK. So, I made a contract for the same.

159
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,160
Engagement Letter.

160
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,160
It is called Engagement Letter.

161
00:09:58,680 --> 00:10:00,280
What purpose is this made for?

162
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,280
It is made so that, during the audit,

163
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,600
if there is any misunderstanding
with the client, we can avoid it.

164
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,360
It includes scope of the audit,
management responsibility,

165
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,280
auditor's responsibility,
applicable framework,

166
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,520
and reference of any report to be issued.

167
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,000
On such an important document,
you wrote the client's name wrongly.

168
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,080
Not GTK Industrials, it's GTK Industries.

169
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,240
Fix it and get it back.

170
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,000
Before going to the factory
for the audit, do study all this.

171
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,880
Know what you are doing.
Otherwise, don't do it.

172
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,840
Especially on GTK Industries.

173
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,360
Archie. Shall we talk?

174
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,200
Had you gone to ask
for leave or extra work?

175
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,600
That is the problem.

176
00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:04,760
Whenever I go to him
with some personal work,

177
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,480
he assigns me some urgent official work.

178
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:08,960
I don't know how to talk to him.

179
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,760
You are overthinking.

180
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,400
Do you know what's the advantage
of working in a small firm?

181
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,200
You get leaves with sheer ease.

182
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,120
Just talk to sir once.

183
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,400
Ask for leaves, bravely. Not timidly.

184
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:22,960
It's your right.

185
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,200
-Yes. Click it.
-Kavya, please.

186
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,400
Niraj, please.

187
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,840
-Sir, please.
-Hang on. Kavya, listen.

188
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,960
-Please.
-You know that I am...

189
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,960
But one picture is not a big deal.
Please.

190
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:43,760
-Hey, it's awkward.
-Yes, sir. Just one picture. Madam.

191
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:44,920
Hey.

192
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,360
Hey! I like it. Please. Just one photo.

193
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,000
Only for madam.

194
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:50,680
Well...

195
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,840
You disappointed her.

196
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:55,840
-Go on.
-Yes.

197
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,800
Thank you, sir. Actually, camera phones
have eaten into our business.

198
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,480
-Come on. Click the photo.
-Yes.

199
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,800
Sir, get closer to her.

200
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,000
Yes, madam. Get close to him.

201
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,840
Sir, if you could smile a little,

202
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,600
you will look good in the photo.

203
00:12:13,680 --> 00:12:15,240
Smile a bit, sir. Little...

204
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:16,760
Smile.

205
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,680
A bit. Little smile.

206
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,320
Very nice! Got it!

207
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,280
I'll get you the printout in two minutes.

208
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:25,360
-In two minutes...
-Done?

209
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,640
I'll be right back.

210
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,720
Thank you.

211
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,400
-Happy?
-Yes. Very much.

212
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,320
I am warning you.

213
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,960
In future, you have to get
many pictures clicked.

214
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,400
Be prepared. I won't let you back out.

215
00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:44,600
What happened?

216
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,840
What did you say? In future...

217
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:49,880
Yes. So?

218
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,360
Kavya, are you dreaming
of a future with me?

219
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,720
Yes.

220
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:01,200
Aren't you?

221
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,040
Of course. I do.

222
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,520
But I didn't know you were dreaming of it.

223
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,400
Niraj, this CA and CS chapter
in our lives

224
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,520
went on for too long.

225
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,000
But after this, a new chapter will start.

226
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,960
All I know is that I see you
with me, in it.

227
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,320
Kavya.

228
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:38,120
Rs. 150.

229
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,080
Ah. Thank you.

230
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,720
-Rs. 150?
-Yes, sir.

231
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,320
Rs. 150 for one photo.
You people are fleecing us.

232
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:46,800
Forget that, sir.

233
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,640
Look at the photo.
You'll pay me more for it.

234
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,240
-Here. Rs. 150.
-It's beautiful.

235
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,520
Thank you, ma'am. Thank you, sir.

236
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,520
-Shall we?
-Show it to me.

237
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,920
Why? You don't like it.

238
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,160
-Hey! Show it to me.
I, too, am in the photo. -No.

239
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:02,920
Yes.

240
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Sir, I have made changes to the letter.

241
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,240
Keep it.

242
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,800
Sir, my exams are approaching.

243
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,520
So, I wanted to talk about leave.

244
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,280
Yes. How many days of leave do you want?

245
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,000
From the next week.

246
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,960
Okay. Drop a mail.

247
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,440
Sure, sir. Thank you.

248
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,880
Archie.

249
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,480
Acknowledge in the mail
that you understand

250
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,000
these leaves will be counted
in the 180 days leaves

251
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,600
allotted by the CA institute.

252
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,600
I am sorry, sir.

253
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,280
Don't you know this?

254
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,760
That is why I was confused as to how
you can ask for so many days of leave.

255
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,640
See, Archie. The thing is...

256
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,840
As per the rules of the Institute,
an article, in his tenure of 3 years,

257
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,960
can take a maximum leave of 180 days.

258
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,120
So, you have to ration it out.

259
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,880
For example, imagine.

260
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,720
This pile of coins
is your 180 days of leaves.

261
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,640
This includes your CA final leaves also.

262
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,280
In order to prepare for your
CA final, you'd need at least

263
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,320
five months of leaves.

264
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,120
That means 150 days.

265
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,120
Let's keep them aside.

266
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,400
For the next two years and three months,

267
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,520
you have just 30 days
of leaves left with you.

268
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,320
And you are demanding for 44 days' leave.

269
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,720
Where will you get
the extra 14 days from?

270
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,640
Here. From the leaves kept
for your CA final's preparation.

271
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,280
Not just that,

272
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,920
you will have your B.Com exams.

273
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,640
You will go to your home town, Nashik.

274
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,520
And God forbid, if you have to
appear for Group 2 once again...

275
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,760
You have to ration leaves from this pile.

276
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,480
This is too less for the CA final.

277
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,560
And as a CA, Archie, take my advice.

278
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,280
Save as many leaves as you possibly can.

279
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,640
You know the case of Bhumik?

280
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,720
He has his CA final in November.

281
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,320
And he has exhausted
almost all of his leaves.

282
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,960
Do you think 20 days' leave is enough
for him to prepare for the CA final?

283
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,000
Archie, I will sanction the leaves

284
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,960
but only as per the rules.

285
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,640
So what if this is a small firm?

286
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:09,760
We will follow the rules.

287
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:18,480
Think about it.

288
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,680
The moment I feel that
I have understood this course,

289
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,120
an unexpected twist hits me.

290
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,120
Is this CA or Game Of Thrones?

291
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,840
GOT was still better.
It came to an end after seven years.

292
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,520
If this continues with me,
forget about seven years.

293
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,360
I can never become a CA in my life.

294
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,800
Nothing like that, Archie.

295
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,040
The articleship will come
to an end in three years.

296
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:57,560
Maybe after that,
you can clear the inter.

297
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,040
Good one.

298
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,920
-No, I mean...
-Hey.

299
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,640
Don't worry, Archie.

300
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,560
A unique kind of insincerity
is needed to fail the exam.

301
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,520
I have it but you don't.

302
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,080
Really? Then tell me something.

303
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,880
How will I cover Group 2
in just one month?

304
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,760
Also, the factory visits will start soon.

305
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,040
How will I manage everything?

306
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,520
Simple. Take a dummy.

307
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:22,960
Right?

308
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,400
I thought you were her best friend.

309
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,920
Of course. I am.

310
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,240
If you are, then why
give her the worst advice?

311
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,360
Archie, the fact is, there is
no such thing as enough time.

312
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,040
There is just a deadline.

313
00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:41,040
CAs, during the season, in order
to meet this deadline, sacrifice

314
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:43,080
their lunchtime, family time
and their sleep.

315
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,240
If you want to pass the exam,
you need to do the same.

316
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,880
Wherever you get time,
you should be studying.

317
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,600
Study while eating.

318
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,280
Study while travelling.

319
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,960
If you get a little time
at the office, you should study.

320
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,240
In fact, instead of sitting here
and cribbing, you should be...

321
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,720
Studying. Studying.

322
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,440
Archie. Studying.

323
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,200
-Studying.
-Oh yes. Sit.

324
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,480
Come on, Archie! We need to study!

325
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,480
Come on. Don't waste her time.

326
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,400
Study, Archie. Come on.

327
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,600
See you, Archie. Study.

328
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,200
Asset numbers are in this list.

329
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,720
They are here physically also.

330
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,920
Look at them and pick the audit.

331
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,960
Check all these. Okay?

332
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,120
Done revising chapter 2?

333
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,280
'It's on.'

334
00:20:01,360 --> 00:20:03,800
Archie, are you done with the work?

335
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,680
These files are done.
These are remaining.

336
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,400
Okay.

337
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,040
This has all the invoices in it.

338
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:12,040
Amounts of new assets
should match this. Okay?

339
00:20:12,120 --> 00:20:15,440
Bhumik, can you please
handle this for 10 minutes?

340
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,080
Archie, if I have...

341
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,760
Guys. Any problem?

342
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,600
No, sir.

343
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,800
Get those files.

344
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,600
We have a revision class.
At least don't miss this.

345
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,280
So slow. Shall we complete
chapter 3 together?

346
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:34,480
Yes, sure.

347
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:50,640
Sir.

348
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,520
Did Bhumik check this?

349
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,000
Yes, sir.

350
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,320
Okay.

351
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,240
Today, we shall sit for a review at 6 pm.

352
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,480
Sir, I have a class at 6 pm.

353
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,040
That's okay. You do miss classes
during the audit season.

354
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,560
Sir, this is a revision class.
I can't afford to miss this.

355
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,120
I can give the paperwork to Bhumik.

356
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,320
And what will you learn from that?

357
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,440
Archie, a CA's job is not complete
until the audit report is signed.

358
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,920
And it becomes your
professional responsibility

359
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,800
to stick and follow through
until it is done.

360
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,320
But as a CA student, sir,

361
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,200
it is also my responsibility to
attend the coaching class, right?

362
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,480
Please understand, sir...

363
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,560
Archie, I understand
where you are coming from.

364
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,680
But as I said earlier,

365
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,440
since the work is important,
you need to push...

366
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,120
How much should I push, sir?

367
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,120
My studies are already being
pushed aside because of articleship.

368
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,280
And, honestly, sir, work will never end.

369
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,040
A new file with a new
deadline hits the desk.

370
00:23:01,120 --> 00:23:04,040
Or there is some mess up that
needs attention on an urgent basis.

371
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,520
Sir, I am not an employee.
I am an article.

372
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,320
Along with working, I also need to study.

373
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,600
CA is the only course

374
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,800
wherein the student
himself wants to study,

375
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,760
attend classes and do revision

376
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,960
but is unable to, because articleship
doesn't give him time for all that!

377
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,800
That is why we fail.

378
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,400
Not because we don't study

379
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,480
but because we are not
given the time to study.

380
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,440
Sir, talking of rules,
there is also a rule

381
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,400
that says an article should
work 45 hours a week.

382
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,080
But we, articles, work for 60 to 70
hours a week, without letting out a sigh

383
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,080
because we know that
it is you people who will

384
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,080
validate the completion
of our articleship.

385
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,960
If you don't do that,
we cannot become a CA.

386
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,440
So, sir, I have to put my foot down

387
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,520
because I must attend coaching
classes in order to pass the exam

388
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,000
and for that, you need
to allow me to leave.

389
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,640
That's it!

390
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,960
Archie, I think you need a break.

391
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,200
Take two days off.

392
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,560
And don't worry. I won't deduct it
from your leave of 180 days. Okay?

393
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,680
I will go on a long vacation
after the exams.

394
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,480
Don't laugh. I am serious.

395
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,680
Studies are driving me crazy.

396
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,600
I was about to miss
the submission date of the exam form.

397
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,160
Thankfully, it occurred to me
at the last minute.

398
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,160
One second. What's the last date
to submit the exam form?

399
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,160
What? The last date was yesterday.

400
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,440
Didn't you submit the form?

401
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,320
Relax. It happens.

402
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,240
Studies get so hectic that we can
hardly remember what day it is.

403
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,840
How will you remember the deadline?

404
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,960
Pay the late fees.
It will be done. Okay?

405
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,520
I'll submit it tomorrow morning.

406
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,680
-Sure. Do it.
-Kavya!

407
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,160
-Hi!
-Hi, Sister.

408
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,600
Do you know where Niraj is?
He is not answering calls.

409
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,120
He must be in the library.
Shall I send him?

410
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,960
No. I am getting late.

411
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,680
Just give these notes to him. Okay?

412
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,320
-Okay.
-See you later. Bye.

413
00:26:05,120 --> 00:26:06,200
Hi!

414
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,960
What happened?

415
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,240
Ramesh gave this.

416
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:23,880
Yes, it's mine.

417
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,840
And this as well.

418
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,680
You are here before me. Amazing!

419
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,520
Chetan, can I have your boss' number?
He allows a dummy.

420
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,920
Now, we are talking.

421
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,320
I told you already.
Taking a dummy won't make you dumb.

422
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,200
I'll message you.

423
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,800
And please give me your notes also.

424
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,360
-Good evening.
-Good evening.

425
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,240
Please sit.

426
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,040
Amazing! The class has
shown up in full strength.

427
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,400
Is anyone yet to come?

428
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,120
-No, sir.
-No, sir.

429
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,000
-Shall we start?
-Yes, sir.

430
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:49,800
All right.

431
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,320
-Today will be a revision class.
-Yes, sir.

432
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,080
So, you people will speak more than I do.

433
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,680
So, let's start standard-wise. Okay?

434
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,280
-Yes, sir.
-Please be loud.

435
00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:01,280
-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

436
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,360
Yes. What is SA210?

437
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:04,600
Sir.

438
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,800
Yes, Chetan.

439
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,640
Agreeing the terms of audit engagement.

440
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,320
How is it actually done?

441
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,680
-We make a contract...
-Contract?

442
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:16,720
Do we call it a contract?

443
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:18,920
What is it called?

444
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,560
-Engagement letter.
-Engagement letter.

445
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,640
Yes. Engagement letter.

446
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,920
Now, tell me.

447
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,920
Which para of the standard states
the pre-conditions of the audit?

448
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,360
Deafening silence?

449
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,400
You don't have to memorise all para
numbers, except for the important ones.

450
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:40,720
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

451
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,760
What yes, sir? Say it.

452
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,520
Which para of the standard states
pre-conditions of the audit?

453
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:47,760
Para 6.

454
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,280
Sir, it's Para 6.

455
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:02,920
Okay.

456
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:06,880
What is an engagement letter?

457
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,960
Sir, an engagement letter is given

458
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,720
to the client before the audit starts.

459
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,840
-So that...
-During the audit,

460
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,520
if there is any misunderstanding
with the client...

461
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,040
We can show it to them.

462
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,880
It includes scope of audit...

463
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,720
Management responsibility,
auditor's responsibility...

464
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,920
Applicable framework and reference of...

465
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,600
Any report to be issued.

466
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:31,960
Okay.

467
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,400
I haven't covered that part as yet.

468
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,920
Let's assume.

469
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,080
The terms of audit engagement
are already there in the law,

470
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,480
so, is it necessary for the auditor
to make a letter in written format?

471
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:46,560
No, sir.

472
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:47,920
Then?

473
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,080
We can include a clause
wherein the management says

474
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,440
that it understands its responsibility.

475
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,680
Please sit.

476
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:06,720
This knowledge

477
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,280
can't be acquired in classes.

478
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,480
It comes from experience and exposure.

479
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,960
That is why we tell you
to undergo articleship.

480
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,000
Opting for a dummy will make you dumb.

481
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:24,560
Good, Archie.

482
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,080
So, is 210 clear now?

483
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,360
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

484
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,200
-Engagement letter?
-Yes, sir.

485
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,440
All right. Now, go to page number 42.

486
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,600
Listen. Can I get your boss' number
to apply for articleship?

487
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:43,440
Sure.

488
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,400
Kavya.

489
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,440
My preparation is complete.
It's just that I was...

490
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:55,640
Distracted?

491
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,080
Kavya, it is just a mock test.
It doesn't mean I am...

492
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,280
I understand.

493
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,880
But I don't want either of us to fail
and we blame the other for it.

494
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:07,080
Why would we do that?

495
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,480
You don't know that.

496
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,760
After failing, a person thinks
about the mistake that caused it.

497
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,720
I don't want to be that mistake of yours.

498
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:18,200
Kavya.

499
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,920
Niraj, CA has been your dream.

500
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,840
It is your aim to turn it into reality.

501
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,040
Don't let it go because of us.

502
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,080
It's a matter of a few days.

503
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,320
After that, we have a lifetime together.

504
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,000
Till then, you focus on your studies

505
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,120
and I'll focus on mine.

506
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,600
Now, we shall catch up
only after your exams.

507
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:09,760
Okay?

508
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,680
'We knew that in order to become a CA,'

509
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,520
'one needs to be hard-working,
dedicated and patient.'

510
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,000
'But we didn't know that we'd have
to make so many sacrifices.'

511
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,160
'That we will have to distance
ourselves from our dear ones.'

512
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,760
'And that we'll have
to sacrifice our ego.'

513
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:21,920
I am really sorry, sir.

514
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:26,960
Archie, you don't need to apologise.

515
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,000
However, you need to understand.

516
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,880
Soon after becoming a CA,
you will wield immense power.

517
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,640
And it is my responsibility to make sure

518
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,240
that you are trained enough
to know how to use it well.

519
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,320
But just remember
that I am not your enemy.

520
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,200
I am your first professional mentor.

521
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,400
'It is still true that
in the three years of articles hip,'

522
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,320
'a CA student doesn't have a life.'

523
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:11,120
'But now, I have understood that these
three years actually build his life.'

524
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,160
Hello, sir.

525
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,080
Hello, Archie. Where are you?

526
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:14,960
Come to the office right now!

527
00:35:15,240 --> 00:35:17,560
There is a problem with GTK...

528
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,520
We need to fix this as soon as possible.
Wherever you are, come here.

529
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,000
-What did you do?
-I have no clue.

530
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,080
Did sir tell you anything?

531
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,440
All he said was to send you
to the cabin when you get here.

532
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:53,920
Archie!

533
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,080
Ritesh's cabin.

534
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,320
Is she the one who had
checked the fixed assets?

535
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:28,840
Yes, sir.

536
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:42,600
Congratulations.

537
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,240
You fucked up.
