Hey Sakshi, congratz.... Just prepare yourself with the basics of computers, income tax and other accounting problems. There will be 4-5 abbreviations which you have to explain. Just have confidence its not much a rocket science.
Best of Luck for the exam.

Dear Sakshi,

You have got 15 days which is more than enough.Just remember some points:

1)More importantly than paper,you should be confident during interview,stay calm & focussed.

2)You must be clear about your basic concepts of ipcc.

3)See through the basic tax slabs & exemption limits.

4)It is better to memorize some excel shortcuts and update your IT knowledge,as it would prove fruitful.

5)Never leave any question blank.

6)Update yourself with the some general knowledge and recent developments.It will be useful.

I hope this will work because i also used the same formula.But the key is to stay confident.And all the best for your interview.

In maths ... you are not allowed to use calculator so they dont ask the questions with complicated calculation .. again they want to check your reasoning and IQ level in maths test so usually they ask question which require mind apllication and little calculation.
