This can never be true and it appears like someone is trying to spread wrong message. When our Honorable Prime Minister has a vision of Digital India, I fail to understand how someone can propagate a theory that a subject like Information Technology will be removed from the syllabus.

Please understand Mr. K Raghu is one of the tech savvy presidents of ICAI, who was / has been involved in major IT initiatives. I assume that the president would have meant that the paper of ISCA would be dropped but will take new avatar by having relevant contents that will be useful to members. Why will ICAI introduce Advanced ITT course, if a subject like ISCA were to be thrown to the bins. Food for thought, please ponder.

In the era of e-commerce revolution, e filing, XBRL, Big Data, Cloud computing etc, it’s pugnacious to even think that the Chartered Accountancy syllabus will not have InfoTech as one of the prime subject. Yes, I agree today's ISCA paper has lot of demerits in its present avatar, but would need more refinement, value added contents and materials which are practical oriented.

Yes , It will be removed. In the latest national convention held in Mumbai it was said that it will be removed and mostly not applicable for may 16 exams
