CA Preparation

Since you are in class 12th now, you have a complete year to prepare for your CPT, which is more than enough. There is no official notification by the ICAI regarding the applicability of the new syllabus till now, so we can expect that the current syllabus will be applicable until then. I am trying to guide you about both the syllabus- current & proposed new one. You can register yourself for the foundation course right after your 10th but can appear only after 10+2. If you have registered yourself earlier, you might have received the study materials by ICAI & if you haven't, register at the earliest so that you can get the study material. You can register last for CPT before 6 months.

Hi Sonam,
Yes, you can directly apply for the intermediate level because as per the direct entry scheme, students who are graduates/ postgraduates in commerce secured an aggregate of minimum 55% of the total marks or its equivalent and graduates and postgraduates from any other stream with 60% or more average are eligible for Direct Entry Scheme. Candidates eligible for Direct Entry Scheme can register for CA Intermediate course, and complete one month course on ICITSS. Thereafter, they can join 3 years article ship under a practising Chartered Accountant. On completion of 9 months of article ship, the direct entry candidate is eligible to appear for CA Intermediate examination.
