Hi friends..i cleared CA Final this time..but now i am very confused about what to do next. Basically i am still left with the last 3months of my articleship, which will end only in April this year. What i need to know is whether it is compulsory for me to finish my articleship in the firm where i am serving as an article assisstant right now? Is it possible for me to finish these last 3 months from some other place? Also am i eligible to sit for campus placements of ICAI? And can i apply for jobs elsewhere?

1. Yes it is compulsory to finish your articleship in the current firm only.

2. you are eligible for campus placement only if you finish your acrticelsship and GMCS by 30 April 2014

3. Given that you have cleared CA final in this attempt, which has seen the worst passing percentage in more than a decade, please do start applying directly to companies of your interest...you have a very good chance of getting good jobs off-campus..

In case of PSU jobs, their advertisements usually carry the date on which your qualifications have to be completed...if you complete your CA by that date, then U can apply...in case of Pvt. cos. they can demand your membership no. which will be allotted after compelting articleship and GMCS only.
