Igniter
Built for CA / CS / CMA Coaching

The coaching app built for commerce professional exams

CA, CS, CMA — these are 3–5 year professional journeys across Foundation, Inter, and Final levels. Each level has its own syllabus, examination pattern, and content depth. Your coaching app must handle multi-level tracks, MCQ + descriptive testing, case study problems, and heavy video-lecture content under strict DRM. Igniter is built for this. ₹0 setup, 5% only on course enrollments.

Why commerce coaching is different

CA/CS/CMA institutes have unique workflows

Coaching for professional commerce exams shares almost nothing with JEE/NEET/UPSC prep in terms of operational needs. Four characteristics that set CA/CS/CMA institutes apart:

  • Multi-level progression — Foundation → Inter → Final. A student typically enrolls at Foundation, continues at Inter a year later, Final after that. Your app must retain enrollment history and course access across years.
  • MCQ + descriptive hybrid papers — CA Inter and Final papers are descriptive (solve full case problems, prepare accounting entries, draft audit reports). MCQs cover only some subjects. Your app needs both MCQ engine and descriptive grading.
  • Long video lectures — CA/CS lecture content runs 60–120 minutes per session. DRM-protected video with resume-anywhere, playback speed control, and note-taking is non-negotiable.
  • Case study problems — complex multi-part questions with interconnected sub-parts. Your testing engine must handle case-based assessment, not just standalone MCQs.

Built-in features

What your CA/CS/CMA coaching app ships with

Every CA/CS/CMA institute on Igniter gets these features at ₹0:

  • Multi-level course tracks — Foundation, Inter, Final as distinct hierarchies. Students progress through levels with year-over-year enrollment history preserved.
  • Subject-wise content library — Accounting, Audit, Taxation, Law, Financial Management, Costing, SCMPE, each with own lecture series and faculty lead.
  • MCQ + descriptive testing — MCQs with section timers for objective papers; descriptive submissions with faculty grading for CA Final-style problems.
  • Case study question builder — multi-part questions where Part B depends on Part A's answer. Case-based assessments that mirror ICAI / ICSI / ICMAI examination style.
  • DRM-protected long-form lectures — 60–120 min video lectures stay DRM-safe with resume, 1.25x/1.5x/2x playback, built-in note-taking.
  • ICAI module alignment — tag content to specific ICAI study material chapters so students studying via official modules find coaching content easily.
  • Revision test papers (RTPs) + mock test papers (MTPs) — upload institute RTPs/MTPs organized by exam attempt cycle.
  • Previous year suggestions — track which chapters have appeared in last 5 attempts, weight practice effort accordingly.
  • Batch management for CA calendars — May attempt, November attempt, January attempt — each with its own schedule, mock calendar, and fee structure.
  • Student doubt forum by subject — Accounting doubts to Accounting faculty, Taxation to Tax faculty, etc. Peer discussions also enabled.

Attempt cycle handling

Managing CA attempt calendars (May / November / January)

CA students don't graduate on a fixed schedule — they attempt on May/November/January cycles, and some push an attempt by 6 months, others clear in 1 go. Your coaching app must handle this attempt-cycle reality:

Cohort tagging by attempt. Every student is tagged with their intended attempt (e.g., "CA Inter May 2027"). Content, mock tests, and fee reminders are scheduled relative to that attempt date, not a generic calendar.

Attempt-shifted content. If a student pushes their attempt from May to November, their content access auto-extends by 6 months without manual re-enrollment.

Past-attempt analytics. For students on their second or third attempt, analytics show which chapters they scored weakly on historically — a focus signal for current revision.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does Igniter support CA Foundation, Inter, and Final levels?

Yes. Each level is a distinct course hierarchy. Students progress through levels year-over-year with enrollment history preserved. Foundation students can upgrade to Inter without re-enrolling as a new user.

Can the app handle CA descriptive papers with case studies?

Yes. Descriptive submissions work like UPSC mains: typed or handwritten image uploads, faculty grading with rubrics, inline feedback. Case study question builder supports multi-part questions with dependencies.

How are 60-120 min lectures handled?

DRM-protected with HLS streaming, resume-anywhere, playback speed (1.25x, 1.5x, 2x), built-in note-taking that syncs to student's study journal. Screen recording is blocked on Android.

Can I schedule content by CA attempt cycle?

Yes. Tag students by their intended attempt (e.g., CA Inter May 2027). Content, mock test schedules, fee reminders are scheduled relative to that attempt. If a student pushes their attempt by 6 months, content access auto-extends.

Does the app align with ICAI study material?

Yes. Every video, note, and question can be tagged to specific ICAI module chapters. Students revising via official ICAI material can easily find matching coaching content.

Can I upload RTPs and MTPs?

Yes, unlimited uploads. Organize RTPs/MTPs by attempt cycle (May 2025, Nov 2025, etc.) and subject. OCR extracts questions from PDFs for searchability.

What does it cost?

₹0 to launch, ₹0 monthly, 5% on actual course enrollment sales. A CA coaching institute doing ₹40 lakh annually pays ₹2 lakh on Igniter vs typically ₹4-6 lakh on Classplus-tier platforms.
