Have you ever met an individual with four academic degrees, all at the age of 21?
Well, 21-year-old Aditya Jhavar, a resident of Parvat Patiya from the diamond hub of Gujarat, Surat, has successfully proven the naysayers wrong.
With over four degrees, of which three are considered to be amid the toughest courses in the country, Aditya has successfully cleared Company Secretary (CS), Chartered Accountancy (CA) and Cost and Management Accountancy (CMA).
In the process, he also became the youngest student to have cleared these exams. So far, the same feat was achieved only by a 23-year-old student from Delhi, reports the Times of India.

His father Mahesh is a textile trader and a CA aspirant back in the day, who couldn’t clear the exam, Aditya’s mother Rajshree is a school teacher with a B.Com degree.
Mahesh expressed pride over his son’s achievements.
“I could not study since I had to earn money. But I am happy and feel proud that my son holds these three toughest degrees at this age,” he told the Times of India.
