Yes, it is possible to pursue the Advanced Integrated Course on Information Technology and Soft Skills (AICITSS) - Advanced Information Technology (ATC) course even if you have not completed your CA Intermediate exams yet. Here’s how it typically works:

3. **Independent of CA Intermediate Completion**: Unlike the CA Intermediate exams, which are mandatory to progress towards the final level of CA, the ATC course can be completed independently or concurrently with your CA Intermediate studies.
4. **Timeline**: You can start the ATC course at any point during your articleship period, provided you meet the eligibility criteria. The completion of ATC does not hinge on the completion of CA Intermediate exams.
### Advantages of Completing ATC:
