I would recommend you to definitely complete your CA first. If not, then complete a PGDM/MBA. You need a master's degree for constant career growth and specially for promotion from manager to above level. CISA etc just complement your degree.
I realised this and completed my CA first.
The organisations will never tell you this because they just want to get their work done. But a master's degree will give you confidence and also better bargaining power for salary.
P.S.: I completed my CA working for BDO where I was not promoted for 3 years because I didnt have my degree. Now I am becoming manager soon!!
