Due to the program partnerships between business schools and the CFA Institute, there is now an efficient means for investment professionals to obtain both a graduate business degree and a CFA.

You can do MBA after BMS but is a 2 year MBA (Finance) degree comprehensive enough to give you an insight of the Finance Related Concepts? The simple answer to this is NO.

Hi,
According to me, you cannot go for CFA because it is hard for you. You are from a software background and you even don't know the basics of finance. But yes, digital marketing is best for you because you have maximum knowledge of computers.
All the best.

Both serves different needs and are equally demanded. CFA is one of the crucial requirements for financial analyst, credit and portfolio analyst roles. Hence, if you want to build your career in these areas, I strongly recommend you to pursue CFA.

The answer to this question is a yes. You can pursue a CFA in the last year of your graduation, however, it is not possible to take the CFA course right after the 12th. The minimum eligibility for CFA is an undergraduate qualification or bachelor's degree from a renowned university.

The combination is as:
1. CA + MBA.
2. CA + CFA.
As package is concerned, first option is much better. It depends on institutes and its ranking. Second option is better, if you want to make your career in education sector. Both options are equally good for those, who want to go abroad or want to work on foreign assignment through Indian companies.
