The exams have begun on November 1.
A month before the exams were slated to begin, rumors went viral on social media about the exams being postponed. The ICAI had asked the CA students to not to pay heed to such unfounded rumours and get misled. The admit cards for the exam were released in October.
Meanwhile ICAI has sought suggestions from CA candidates, on major issues like the system/ structure of the exam, the format of question paper, evaluation process of answer sheet, marking scheme among others. The suggestions can be submitted till November 10. In September, CA students protested outside ICAI's office in central Delhi for many days. They demanded re-evaluation of answer sheet and a change in the regulations to allow re-checking of the answer sheets.
