The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has revised the examination schedule for the Chartered Accountants (CA) Final, Intermediate, and International Taxation – Assessment Test (INTT–AT) for May 2025.
Earlier in May 2025, ICAI postponed certain exams scheduled from 9 to 14 May following the tensions between India and Pakistan, impacting candidates, particularly in 12 high-alert cities.
The latest decision follows favourable developments in the national security situation, allowing for improved logistical arrangements to conduct the examinations.
According to an official notification issued on 10 May, examinations originally scheduled between 9 and 14 May 2025 will now be held from 16 to 24 May 2025.
The revised dates affect six papers in total, covering CA Final Group II, CA Intermediate Group II, and INTT–AT.
Despite the change in schedule, ICAI confirmed that examination venues and time slots remain unchanged.
All exams will begin at 2:00pm Indian Standard Time, with most concluding at 5:00pm, except for papers marked with an asterisk, which will end at 6:00pm.
Previously issued admit cards will remain valid for the revised dates, the accounting body said.
The affected papers include Final Group II Paper 5: Indirect Tax Laws and INTT–AT Paper 1: International Tax – Transfer Pricing, which will now be held on 16 May 2025 instead of 10 May 2025.
Final Group II Paper 6: Integrated Business Solutions and INTT–AT Paper 2: International Tax – Practice, originally scheduled for 13 May 2025, will now be conducted on 18 May 2025.
Intermediate Group II Paper 4: Cost & Management Accounting, initially set for 9 May 2025, has been rescheduled to 20 May 2025.
Intermediate Group II Paper 5: Auditing & Ethics has been moved from 11 May to 22 May 2025, while Intermediate Group II Paper 6: Financial Management & Strategic Management, previously planned for 14 May, will now be held on 24 May 2025.
ICAI has emphasised that the revised dates are final and examinations will be held as scheduled even if any of the new dates coincide with a public or local holiday.
The CA Foundation examination schedule remains unchanged and will proceed as previously announced, with exams taking place on 15, 17, 19, and 21 May 2025.
