You have to submit an application( which can be downloded fron icai website) with a DD for rs 1100 to the respected regional council or the applicable chapters.( RS 1100 is for your transformation to new course , they ll provide u new final materials free of cost )...Pls find attached the Application form....

what i feel is that Application form & DD is to be submitted only if an Old cource student wanted to write the Final (NEW) exam in Nov 2010. This announcement came in July 2010 before Nov 2010 exams.
Let us hope that icai will make an announcement again at the time of publishing results because that is the actual time when a student of old course will have to take some action if he/she does not clear in Nov 2010.
Please read the announcment carefully, it says ---
1) Final (Old) syllabus students shall have to mandatorily switch over to the Final (New) syllabus after November, 2010 examination...using the words "have to switch over" in this line has created the confusion.
2) Final (Old) students have an option to appear in the Final (New) examination in November, 2010 by switching over to Final (New) course by sending a prescribed “Application form for enrolment as a Student for Final Course .....now plz note that this line is in a different para.
I have pasted the FULL announcment below:
Sub: Discontinuance of CA Final Examination under the old syllabus.
Students are hereby informed that the CA Final (Old) Course shall be discontinued with the holding of the November, 2010 examination. In other words, November, 2010 examination will be the last attempt available to Final (Old) students and no further extension shall be granted under any circumstances. Final (Old) syllabus students shall have to mandatorily switch over to the Final (New) syllabus after November, 2010 examination.
Students who have passed one of the Groups in Final (Old) examination will get Group-wise exemption in the Final (New) course Examination. Final (Old) students have an option to appear in the Final (New) examination in November, 2010 by switching over to Final (New) course by sending a prescribed “Application form for enrolment as a Student for Final Course” down loaded from the Institute’s web site to concerned Regional Office alongwith Demand Draft of Rs. 1,100/- (Rupees One thousand one hundred only) drawn in favour of “The Secretary, The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India”, payable at concerned Regional Office i.e. Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Kanpur, Delhi, as the case may be, towards cost of Final (New) Course Study material.
