Empowering Women: Rs 1.5 Crore Scholarship Initiative Announced
FinTram Global LLP Leads the Way
In an inspiring move on International Women’s Day 2025, FinTram Global LLP has unveiled a Rs 1.5 crore scholarship initiative, dedicated to supporting 150 women in their pursuit of careers in finance and accounting. Dubbed ‘FinTram Cares,’ this program aims to provide women with access to globally recognized qualifications like US CPA and ACCA, enhancing their employability and bridging the gender gap in this dynamic field.
Eligibility and Application Process
The initiative is open to women graduates or those pursuing a degree in India, who have secured at least 60% in their 12th standard or 1st Division in graduation. Furthermore, aspirants must clear the FinTram National Scholarship Test, scheduled virtually on April 5, 2025. The application window is open until March 31, 2025, inviting women to seize this chance by registering on the official FinTram Global website.
Addressing the Gender Gap
As India emerges as a global hub for finance and accounting services, the demand for internationally certified professionals is surging. Despite finance and accounting’s central role, women’s participation remains modest at 37%. This initiative by FinTram Global is a crucial step toward fostering gender equality and empowering women with the skills required to excel and lead in this sector.
Voices of Support and Commitment
Pankaj Dhingra, Managing Partner at FinTram Global LLP, emphasized the transformative power of financial education: “By offering these scholarships, we are not only investing in individual careers but also contributing to broader economic empowerment.”
Professor Dr. Anuja Pandey from the All India Management Association called the initiative commendable, highlighting its potential role in bridging gender gaps and fostering an inclusive workforce.
A Vision for Inclusivity
Ms. Swati Dhingra, Co-Founder of FinTram Global LLP, remarked, “Inspired by the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao initiative, we aim to continue the legacy of Beti Padhao, Beti Badhao, equipping women with essential skills for financial independence.”
Comprehensive Support for Scholars
The scholarships, covering tuition and exam preparation resources, offer mentorship to ensure comprehensive guidance for aspiring financial professionals. This outreach aligns with industry insights suggesting upskilling programs for women could boost workforce participation and drive economic growth.
Apply Now
Women aspirants eager to seize this opportunity can apply starting March 8, 2025, through FinTram Global’s official platform. As India continues to solidify its position as a talent hub, initiatives like these are pivotal in ensuring a bright and inclusive future for women in finance.
According to The CSR Journal, this scholarship program is anticipated to transform the landscape of women’s participation in the finance industry.
