FOR ATTENTION OF STUDENTS APPEARING IN FINAL EXAMINATION
Sub: Relaxation in the requirement of completing Advanced Course on Information Technology Training
For admission to the Final Examination, one of the requirements under Regulation 29C of the Chartered Accountants Regulations, 1988, for students registered for practical training on or after 1st February, 2013 is to complete the Advanced Course on Information Technology Training. It was brought to the notice of the Council that a number of students who are otherwise eligible for appearing in the Final Examination effective from November, 2015, are not able to complete the said Course because of certain reasons beyond their control. In order to remove the hardship faced by such students, the Council of the Institute by virtue of powers vested in it under Regulation 205 of the Chartered Accountants Regulations, 1988 has relaxed the said requirement by permitting such students to complete the said Course even after appearing in the Final Examination but before enrolling as a member of the Institute.
In view of above relaxation given by the Council, the students registered for practical training on or after 1st February, 2013 and are otherwise eligible for appearing in the Final Examination effective from November, 2015 onwards can now undergo the Advanced Course on Information Technology Training even after appearing in the Final Examination but before enrolling as a member of the Institute.
