In order to mitigate the hardships being faced by the students who have originally registered for Intermediate (IPC) Course under CPT Route and shifted to Direct Entry Scheme, the Council on consideration decided to relax the criteria of completion of nine months of Practical Training for appearing in the Intermediate (IPC) Examinations and passed the resolution under Regulation 205 of the Chartered Accountants Regulations, 1988 as under:
