Dear Students, 

We are receiving queries from many students everyday regarding the new scheme implementation. New videos are coming up on YouTube guessing about syllabus etc. Some videos are using old documents (apparently when the plan was to implement from Nov-22). All these videos have added more confusion than clarity to the students. I advise all the students to stop bothering and focus on their studies. 

In my view, students should keep the following points in mind. 

CA Inter Students

  • Students who cleared CA Foundation in Dec-22 attempt have time till 1st March for CA Inter Registration. Till that time, you should start preparing for subjects like Accounting Standards, Law, Audit & Taxation. Even if you do not plan to enroll for classes, you should start self-study with existing materials available on BOS Portal. You can also refer to the notes which are available in our free resources section. 
  • The syllabus is going to remain 80-90% the same. Even if you prepare under the current syllabus, you will be able to be ready under the new syllabus as and when implemented. 
  • In the past, ICAI had allowed parallel attempts (in 2006 & 2017). Even if ICAI does not allow it, there would not be much of a challenge since the number of subjects would be reduced. 
  • If you have cleared a group or secured exemptions in the current scheme, you will get the corresponding benefits in the new scheme which would be implemented. So do not worry about this. 

CA Final Students

  • Students who have cleared CA Inter in the Nov-22 attempt would be more or less completing CA Final at about the same time as explained in this video - Should you wait for articleship?
  • Start with subjects like FR, SFM, or Audit as these would have the least changes. 
  • Students eligible for Nov-23 exams should prepare as if they would write in the existing scheme as there is no clarification or confirmation from ICAI. 

If you have any more questions, please put them as a comment on this post. We will be more than happy to guide you. 

Regards

Suraj Lakhotia

If a student clears inter grp 1 in nov 23(old course), then will he be automatically converted to new scheme for group 2? If yes then how many papers will he have to give? Also since accounts and adv accounts has been combined, in reference to above example will he have to give adv accounts separately or he will get scheme benefit as he has cleared grp 1 already?

No one knows whether there is automatic conversion or an option to convert - at some point, it will become automatic - whether in the first attempt or not no one knows. Exemptions will be appropriately handled. pls wait for official announcement - at this point all we can do is guess

ICAI has not yet announced a transition scheme. We need clarity from ICAI in this regard. Earlier in 2006 & 2017 we had parallel attempts.

This is a million-dollar question. Direct entry scheme - Under new syllabus, students can start articleship only after clearing both groups.
