Most claims in the coaching industry — pass rates, salaries, placements — are published without the numbers behind them. QuintEdge Research exists to do the opposite: publish original data on CFA, FRM and ACCA outcomes in India with the cohort, method and sources attached, so students, journalists and researchers can check the arithmetic instead of taking it on faith.
CFA Pass Rate: 88% First-Attempt on Level 1
The Level 1 cohort in one page — 151 of 171 first-time candidates (Feb 2024–May 2026) versus official global rates of 39–50%, with the honest ≈2× arithmetic.

144 of 167 first-attempt candidates (May 2024–May 2026) versus GARP’s 47–50% global rates — a plain-stated 1.7–1.8× multiple.

Paper-wise global pass rates (40–53%, March 2026 sitting) — and why QuintEdge publishes named student results instead of an institute rate.

Aggregate percentages are only as credible as the records behind them. QuintEdge publishes individual student results — with names — on public results walls: 176 CFA (L1 151 · L2 24 · L3 1), 144 FRM (P1 115 · P2 29) and 24 ACCA results. Of the 344, 310 link to a public LinkedIn profile and 340 carry a photo; 63 students asked to be listed by initials, and their entries say so. For CFA and FRM these walls carry every verified pass in the published cohorts; ACCA is reported as named results only, in line with ACCA's guidance for tuition providers.
Walls: cfa-results · frm-results · acca-results. Every counted result requires the official score document on file before listing.
