New Delhi: In a huge sigh of relief for the Chartered Accountancy (CA) aspirants in the country, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has announced that the examinations scheduled for July-August has been called off owing to COVID-19 pandemic. The ICAI informed the Supreme Court that exams make take place in November.
In June last week, the apex court had said that students can choose to skip their July exams. In that case, they won’t be running the risk of being marked as having failed in the papers they skipped for the pandemic.
A total of 3.46 lakh students were scheduled to sit for the exams from July 29 to August 16. As many as 2.89 lakh students had opted in while 52,000 chose to sit out.
The Supreme Court on June 29 had asked the ICAI to make a fresh draft notification allowing students to skip the exams.
