    No.
    Meta keywords and meta description haven't got any effect on rankings.

    Only changing Meta description could boost your CTR.

    That is an incorrect statement. Changing your meta description will have an affect on your ranking. The best thing to do is leave the main keyword in the description but change some of the other wording around, doing this will also help get your site recached.

    I find it best to setup like this ..

    TITLE: Site_Name > folder > subfolder > subsubfolder: cat1, cat2, cat3, cat 4 ..

    META DESC: one sentence describing this page using keywords at least once. (Dont use just keywords or your exact title text.)

    META TAGS: subsubfolder, cat1, cat2, cat3, cat4


    .. hope that makes sense .. :)

    Where did you read or heard that meta description could affect on rankings ?

    This is not true.

    meta tags keywords/descriptions/title will improve your rankings if your major keywords are intregrated in your content. Other important factors:
    - Content
    - Related backlinks with anchors
