Currently, a person who has completed a CFA level 1 certification gets a mean salary of INR 4.5-5.5 LPA while a complete charter holder (one who has completed all 3 levels) enjoys a starting salary of INR 6-15 LPA. Since you are already a chartered accountant, it shouldn't be too difficult to crack CFA level 1.
