The authority has released the ICAI Exam prospectus on the official website of the organization. The ICAI Exam is for the students who want to become CA or Chartered Accountant one day. The CA is a lot in demand as they help people in financial accounting or filing Income tax etc. The ICAI Exam this year was scheduled to be conducted in May 2020 this year but was deferred citing the pandemic. In this article, we will discuss the whole ICAI process.

ICAI Exam

The ICAI Exam is divided into three levels, foundation, intermediate, and final level. The students have to clear the three levels successfully to become a successful CA one day. The foundation level of the ICAI is very easy while the intermediate and final level is on a tougher side. The students find it difficult to clear these two levels. The ICAI has also offered the students the two patterns for the intermediate and final level i.e. the old syllabus or the new level. The difference between the new and old syllabus is that the older one has fewer subjects than the new one.
