ICAI honours, Neeraj Ghei with 'CA Women Lifetime Achievement Award 2025'

This accolade recognizes Ghei's contributions as a business leader, industry pioneer, and philanthropist.

The CA Women Excellence Awards were instituted in 2023 to applaud women leaders who have created a lasting impact within their organizations, the accounting profession, and society at large.

Receiving the award, Neeraj Ghei said, "I receive this recognition with humility and gratitude. Being a CA has been more than a profession to me--it has been a lifelong journey of learning, responsibility, discipline, attention to detail, and purpose. To be acknowledged by my peers and the profession I hold in the highest regard is truly meaningful. Over the years, the profession has evolved dramatically--laws keep changing, technology is transforming our work, and expectations have grown. Yet the core values of our profession remain constant: integrity, independence, and service to society. To the younger members of our profession, I would say: Skills can be acquired, knowledge can be updated, but integrity, if compromised, is difficult to reclaim. Our profession commands respect because society trusts us; please guard that trust fiercely."

Neeraj Ghei's professional journey began after qualifying as a Chartered Accountant in 1985. She has worked with SITA World Travel and continues to be a Director at TRAC Representations (India) Private Limited.

She has also played a pivotal role as a Promoter Director in conceptualizing and launching Select CITYWALK, a shopping and leisure destination in Delhi.

According to a statement from Trac Representations, Ghei's initiatives range from providing state-of-the-art medical equipment to hospitals to sponsoring education and the Golfing Girl Child Programme, which empowers underprivileged young women through sports, skill development, education, and environmental sustainability.
