Hi All, I have cleared my CA Final first group, back in 2009..Did try Second grp a few times and then left it as I had to go abroad for work... Now planning to get qualified... However, when I checked the syllabus noticed quite a lot has changed... In this regard would like to get your expert opinions on below doubts, 1) First of all will I be able to enroll again for CA Final? 2) If yes, do I have to re appear for the First Group which I passed back in 2009?

Certainly! Here are the answers to your questions regarding re-enrollment and reappearing for CA Final:
### 1) Enrollment for CA Final:
- Yes, you can enroll again for CA Final. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) allows candidates to appear for CA Final examinations as long as they fulfill the eligibility criteria.
### 2) Reappearing for First Group Passed in 2009:
- Since you have already cleared the First Group of CA Final back in 2009, you do not need to reappear for that group. Once you have cleared a group, that result remains valid indefinitely. You can focus on preparing for and appearing in the remaining group or groups that you have not cleared.
### Additional Points to Consider:
- **Syllabus Changes**: As you have mentioned, there have been updates to the CA Final syllabus over the years. It is essential to familiarize yourself with the current syllabus and any changes that have been made since you last attempted the exams.
- **Registration Renewal**: Ensure that your registration with ICAI is active and up-to-date. If there have been any changes or updates in your registration status (such as address or contact information), make sure to update them.
- **Preparation Strategy**: Given the gap since your last attempt, it might be beneficial to start with a comprehensive review of the syllabus and consider enrolling in a coaching program or self-study plan that aligns with the current requirements.
### Conclusion:
- You are eligible to continue your journey towards completing the CA Final examinations. - Focus on preparing for the remaining group(s) that you need to clear, based on the current syllabus. - Stay updated with any changes or announcements from ICAI regarding examination schedules, registration requirements, and syllabus updates.
If you have any specific concerns or need further guidance, it's advisable to reach out to the ICAI regional office or consult with a qualified mentor who can provide tailored advice based on your individual circumstances. Good luck with your preparations!
