Meet CA Poonam Makhija — Where Academic Brilliance Meets Real-World Expertise
Some teachers teach subjects. And then some men tors transform the way you think about a subject entirely. CA Poonam Makhija firmly belongs to the second category.
A chartered accountant who cleared all three levels of the CA — Foundation, Intermediate, and Final — in her very first attempt, Poonam's journey represents strong determination, strategic preparation, and a passionate love for simplifying complex concepts. Qualifying in May 2023, she not only passed the CA exams but also mastered them. And today, she brings that same mastery into the classroom for every student at CA Point.
From State Topper to University Topper — A Journey Built on Clarity
Poonam's academic story began long before CA. As a Class 12 state topper, she demonstrated early on that her approach to studying was different — more focused, more structured, and more conceptual than most.
She carried that momentum forward into her graduation, where she appeared as a university topper from Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV), Indore — one of the most respected universities in Central India. Two topper titles. Two different stages. One consistent thread: a preparation strategy rooted in insight rather than rote learning.
Her educational qualifications:
- Chartered Accountancy — Completed May 2023
- CA Foundation, Intermediate & Final – Cleared First Attempt in Each
- 12th Board Examination – State topper
- Graduation – University topper, DAVV, Indore
This is not simply a list of achievements. It's proof of what disciplined, concept-driven preparation can accomplish.
Real-World Experience That Goes Beyond the Books
What really differentiates CA Poonam Makhija from most faculty members is not just what she knows academically — it's what she has lived professionally.
Currently, Poonam works with multinational companies, where her daily responsibilities include the following:
- Legal compliance management
- Financial reporting for Spain & Portugal
- Governance and international regulatory frameworks
She has also worked on high-value projects with Deloitte, one of the globally renowned Big 4 firms, obtaining firsthand exposure to the following:
- Audit processes and methodologies
- Risk-based compliance systems
- International financial reporting structures
- Corporate legal frameworks

When you sit in Poonam's class, and she explains a legal provision, she's not reading from a textbook. She's drawing from boardroom decisions, multinational compliance reports, and real audit scenarios. That's the kind of faculty CA Point is proud to bring to its students.
Teaching Philosophy — Law Is Not Meant to Be Feared
Ask Poonam what she thinks about the way Law is traditionally taught, and she'll tell you directly:
Law is not a subject to memorise. It is a subject to understand, apply, and enjoy."
This belief didn't come from a classroom. It came from watching, in real life, how legal compliance shapes the decisions of multinational corporations across countries and jurisdictions. When she saw that impact directly – working on international projects and Big 4 assignments – she realised something important: every CA student is entitled to understand law, not just for exam day but also for the rest of their professional lives.
Her mission at CA Point is clear and simple – to make law logical, relatable, and scoreable for every student, no matter their starting point.
What She Teaches at CA Point
CA Intermediate → Corporate & Other Laws (Law)
Law at the CA intermediate level is often considered one of the most dreaded subjects in the curriculum, with long provisions, complex acts, and a seemingly endless syllabus. Poonam's approach flips that perception entirely.

Whether you're a student who has always struggled with law or someone looking to score high in the subject, Poonam's structured approach ensures you walk into the exam hall with confidence — not anxiety.
The CA Point Advantage — What Makes Her Classes Unique
Simplified & Uniquely Structured Notes
Poonam's notes are not just summaries — they are learning tools. Designed for quick revision and long-term retention, they help you organise the law in your mind the way it actually works, not the way it appears in dense legislative text.
Real-Life Corporate Examples
Every concept is anchored in a practical scenario – drawn from her work with multinational companies, international compliance teams, and Big 4 audit projects. Students don't just learn what the law says. They learn why it exists and how it operates in the real world.
Exam-Oriented Strategy
Knowing the content is only half the battle. Poonam teaches students how to present answers – the right keywords, the right structure, and the scoring patterns that examiners actually look for. This is a strategy, not just a study.
Concept + Application Blend
The goal in Poonam's classes is never just to pass. It's to understand. Students who learn law with her guidance don't just clear the exam — they carry that understanding with them into their professional careers.

She is working every day to shift the law from a subject students fear to one they genuinely understand and even enjoy. That shift — from fear-based memorisation to clarity-based understanding — is her greatest professional goal.
