Reason why profit remains same under delivery based transaction and net cash settlement
AFM
answered on 07-Mar-26 16:20
1 .Delivery based transaction - Arbitrage method: Today - Buy shares at Rs. X & enter into short futures at Rs. Y Expiry Date - Receive proceeds of Rs. Y by delivering the share Profit/loss = Rs. Y - Future value of Rs. X 2. Net Cash Settlement: Today - Buy shares at Rs. X & enter into short futures at Rs. Y Expiry Date - Close the futures by net cash settlement (i.e. Rs. Y minus spot price as on expiry date = Gain/loss on FC) Expiry Date - Sell off the shares in cash market at spot price (i.e. Spot price minus Future value of Rs. X = gain/loss on sell of shares) If we see these 2 gains in together mathematically, spot price gets eliminated and finally the Gain/loss = Rs. Y - Future value of Rs. X. Am I correct, sir?

Doubt Regarding Order of Writing Answers in CA Exams
Exams
answered on 08-Sep-26 21:45
Sir, I have a small doubt regarding the CA exam answer writing pattern. I understand that we can answer questions in a different order, but should it be question-wise (e.g., completing Q2 with all its subparts and then moving to another question), or is it okay to shuffle subparts like writing 2(a), then 4(b), etc.?
latest answer
Yes. You will dont worry.

Sir, How under case 1, the future price after 6 month is Rs.14296.8, but in case 2, the future price after 6 months is Rs.10,200. Then how could we arrive at same profit of Rs.43.2 under both the cases, sir? [Video Time Stamp: 16:50]

Sir, In the first case, we have taken the proceeds from closing of F.C as theoretical future price and arrived at profit of Rs.43.2. Whereas in the second case, taken the spot price as on that date (i.e. 10500) as proceeds from closing of F.C - I couldn't understand this sir, and how come same profit is being arrived in all the cases?

Query Regarding Admit Card – Provisional Registration Despite MCS Completion
Exams
answered on 09-Mar-26 15:36
Hi Sir/Madam, I had made a provisional registration for the CA Final May 2026 exams. At that time, I thought that the updation of MCS completion would happen automatically, so I proceeded with provisional registration even though I had already completed my MCS in February 2026. Later, I uploaded my MCS completion certificate on the SSP portal. My doubt is whether I need to take any further steps from my side. Will I receive my admit card without any issues?

Thanks for the Clarification Sir.

Hi sir, I have understood the concept of arriving from cash book balance to passbook balance and vice versa. For OD as per CB it means we have liability to the bank. For items which increases the od balance we need to add them and which reduces we need to reduce . Is my understanding correct . Or can I simply follow the process of pass book credit balance is equal to overdraft as per cb ( but may I know what’s the logic behind this )
latest answer
Whenever there is a OD balance use (-) symbol against the balance. Rest all treatment would be same. https://youtu.be/hnv460u1v4w This short recap might help.

IRR method
AFM
answered on 07-Mar-26 07:24
Sir, By IRR method, we could arrive only the minimum return so that NPV is Zero. But it doesn't depict the actual return know sir. If in case, rate has been mentioned in the question - in such case going with discounting method would give us the appropriate return. Since here the question is silent on the rate, the first method of solving is more appropriate. Please correct me, if I wrong, sir. [Video Time Stamp: 11:06]
