No its not compulsory. but if u delay, ur attempt for final exam will get delayed. The count will start from ur final & article registration.
I want to clarify that there is no time gap is specified for final registration. You should have a valid final registration number at the time of filing of Final examination form with Institute.
As per Regulation 50 of the CA Regulations, 1988, a student will be eligible to appear in Final Exam, after completing of 30 months (2 Years and 6 months) of article ship.

You should have your final registration no at the time of filing of exam form and you have completed 30 months of article ship.
So try to register in final before filing of final exam form. You should also aware that that the Institute will take minimum one month to give final registration no.

Agree with Experts, There is no such provision for the time limit of registering for CA final, You should register for CA final at least before filling CA final Exam form.. That's at least 3 months before exams...

Please check with CA Institute whether they have registered your Articleship. This may not be a situation that they will register your articleship without final registration.
