ICAI: CA final exams postponed due to UPSC exams

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has announced the postponement of the exams to be held on June 2 and 4, as the examination centers were holding UPSC tests on the same day.

 

Reasons of postponing CA final exams

The paper on June 4 was postponed to June 13 so that Group I of CA final exams was completed before commencing Group II papers, ICAI said on Wednesday.

“Postponement of paper on June 2 to June 4 was occasioned by the inability expressed by many exam centres to conduct the exam on that date owing to their holding Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exams on that day,” ICAI said in a statement.

 

Benefitting students
