Because of some personal issues I could not complete my articleship (completion date 02.05.2016) and also did not clear IPCC (direct scheme) exam. Further I received a communication letter from Institute stating I need to serve a period of 280 days for extra leaves taken by me. However, since I am currently working with a company I did not start my articleship.
Now that I am stable enough I want to pursue my studies further.
My question to you is, am I eligible to appear for the IPCC exam this May-2017 without restarting the articleship and complete the same after declaration of result?

You will be eligible to sit in the exam only if you comply with the rules and regulations of the Institute, otherwise there are no exceptions.
