Announcement

On-line facility for seeking change of Centre/Group/Medium for appearing in CA examinations

It is found that some candidates while filling the examination application form do not exercise reasonable care and commit errors and seek change of Centre/Group/Medium, on account of errors committed by them in their examination application forms, after submission.

With a view to provide an opportunity to the candidates to correct such errors made by them while submitting their examination application forms, it has been decided to put in place an on- line facility to view and correct errors if any, committed by them while submitting the examination application form, in the fields of Centre/Group/Medium, (i.e. for seeking change of Centre/Group/Medium), with effect from May 2015 examinations.

Salient features of the facility are as follows:

Manual applications seeking change of Centre/Group/Medium will not be entertained.

The on-line window for seeking change of Centre/Group/Medium will made available at https://icaiexam.icai.org

This online facility will be available to the candidates who have submitted their examination application forms and not for applying for the exam.

Candidates will be able to check the status of their request for change of Centre/Group/Medium , if approved, in their Admit Cards

Additionally candidates who have applied for the exam under Old Syllabus but have converted to New Syllabus will also be able to seek the change of syllabus from Old Syllabus to New Syllabus.

Details are as follows:

Free on-line facility for seeking change of Centre/Group/Medium:
