Summary
CA Articles Income When Taxable and Exceptions
Income earned in a year is taxable in the next year. The year in which income is earned is known as Previous Year(P.Y.) and the next year in which income is taxable is known as Assessment Year(A.Y.).
Previous Year defined in section 3 of Income Tax Act,1962 "Previous Year is the financial year immediately preceeding the assessment year."
The rule that the income of the Previous Year is accessable as the income of the immediately following assessment year has certain exceptions. These are :
(1) income of non-resident from shipping;
(2) income of persons leaving India either permanently or for a long period of time;
(3) income of bodies formed for short duration;
(4) income of a person trying to alienate his assets with a view to avoiding payment of tax.

CA Articles CA as a Profession
Chartered Accountancy is a highly specialized course and best in the field of accounts and tax. It is one of the most respected profession in India. I have read in one book that Accountants usually have Highest level of IQ as compared to all other professions i believe that is because of its highly universal principles which can apply to almost every situation in life.
Remuneration paid to a chartered accountant is best in the market right now as regards commerce is concerned. It depends on whether you want to Practice or join a company after becoming a Chartered Accountant. A fresh Chartered Accountant earns anywhere between Rs. 4 to 12 lacs(domestic) or Rs. 20 to 30 lacs(international) if he joins any company. Remuneration in practice usually is low in the beginning then depends on the number and nature of clients handled.
Future of Chartered Accountant is as secure as the Government of India or even more than that. Apart from statutory or compulsory requirements of a CA, CA is required in many key decision making areas such as project finance, MIS preparation, handling audit work and many others. Indian CA is recognised in many other countries and many accounting institutions of the World. An Indian CA has to give only 1 exam to be recognised in UK(England) but a CA of UK has to give 4 exams to be recognised in India.
VERY IMPORTANT:
One of the most popular misconception about CA is CA = Come Again.
Students fail to pass CA in first attempt and then come again. But as far as I have seen CA means Chartered Accountants these "COME AGAINS" have not met much. Sincere efforts are required as this question was asked by me to my teacher he said CA Inter you will clear just 15 hours study for 3 months are required. This study time may seen great for some people but believe me it is achievable.

Big Query Solved section 46 (Income Tax)--- Classic Query
Here is my favorite query :
According to section 46(1) "Distribution of Assets in kind by a company to its Shareholders at the time of liquidation" is not "TAXABLE TRANSFER"
Under section 49(1) "on any distribution of assets on the liquidation of a company" the cost to previous owner is deemed to be cost of acquisition to the assessee.
While one section states it is not a taxable transfer but other tells its cost of acquisition. This question was asked by one of the PCC students by numerous CA Final Students and he got answer from none.
Well the actual interpretation of these sections can be judged only by practical situation.
In the words of law I had interpreted that section 49(1) is applicable only and only when the company distributes assets other than to its shareholders. This interpretation was accepted by all unanimously.
