Getting selected / Working in Big4 is not a big issue. Dont think too much on it.
You may face only one problem and that is of No of attempts. KPMG/EY selects candidates upto 5 attempts.
Working in Big4 is different from working in a good profile.
If you do not get selected in Big4 due to attempts, than join any good company, learn alot of practical things from there and than join any of the Big4 firm.
There is no role of size of articleship firm in getting entry into Big4. Only thing required is Knowledge of the work profile you are going to enter in.

Best wishes

Yes you can. But choose a course very wisely. Dont enter into a course which you are not interested in. This will be a waste of time and money.
Decide your future priorities and than go ahead.

@ Priyansh Sir. If a student clears final in 3 attempts but at the age of 28 (due to 14 attempts in IPCC) what is the chance of geeting a job at Big 4. Is AGE also considered.

Well, i actually am interested in this course. since i have learned about Information Technology only in IPCC and Finals. I want to take coaching of CISA. I got to know from googling that there are some institutes that provide coaching as well. But i don't get it they say that a person must have 5 years experience in reltaive field for taking up CISA course.

Is that true?

Yes... There are certain requirements for CISA certification but there are some exceptions also. I dont have the full details.
you can google it.
You can also take up DISA of ICAI in the mean time.. Infact you should
