Nandini was inspired by a Guinness World Record holder who had once visited her school. Since then, Nandini resolved to make a name for herself. She set the goal of becoming the youngest CA.
Nandini's journey was not an easy one. At just 16 years of age, many companies were hesitant to take her on as an apprentice, but Nandini did not give up. Through her hard work and focus, she overcame all obstacles and fulfilled her dream. After passing the 10th and 12th grade examinations with excellent marks, Nandini started studying for CA.
