Paragraph 11

Issue of Admit Cards:
Candidates may please note that despatch of physical admit cards is being discontinued with effect from May 2012 examination onwards. Admit cards, containing the photographs and signatures of the candidates, in respect of all candidates who are found eligible will be hosted on the website www.icai.nic.in normally 21 days prior to the commencement of the examination. Candidates are required to download/print the admit card from the website which will be valid for admission to the examination.
Instead, admit cards, containing the photographs and signatures of the candidates, in respect of all candidates who are found eligible will be hosted on the website www.icai.nic.in normally 21 days prior to the commencement of the examination. Hence there is no need for issue of a separate identity card. Candidates are required to download/print the admit card from the website which will be valid for admission to the examination.
For downloading/printing of the admit cards from the above mentioned website, candidates will have to enter the following:

Student registration number or bar code on the examination form and
Personal Identification Number (PIN)

PIN is like a password. It is a four digit number of your choice entered in the relevant column in the examination form. Candidates will not be able to download/print the admit card without this PIN. Hence, they are advised to memorise and keep the PIN safe for future reference.
So also, candidates are advised to keep a photo copy of the exam application duly filled in, for reference, so that they can use the bar code number contained therein, whenever they correspond with ICAI Exam Dept.
Candidates whose eligibility is in doubt, will be addressed, for clarification, normally 25 days prior to the commencement of the examination.
Upon printing of admit cards, candidates are advised to verify the name, registration number, centre, medium, Group opted, etc.
In case of difficulty in downloading or printing of admit card, or in case of discrepancy in the data contained in the admit card printed, contact the Helpline numbers 0120-3054 851, 3054 852, 3054 823, 3054 835 or Fax No 0120 3054 841 immediately, by quoting the registration number, Bar code number of the examination form, receipt number issued by the regional office(s), if any, Centre opted with Zone applicable, telephone number, fax number etc for prompt action.
