Im sure it will happen one day..... If the Institute is really honest in its approach, it should provide copies of the answer scriptts. When Universities and State Boards can provide, why not our insitute.......
Im very confident it will happen soon. In fact, the matter is subjudice with the supreme court.....
Answer sheet cannot be excluded from the purview of RTI 
New Delhi, Apr 30 : Students who fail in Chartered Accountant exams can find out their mistakes by going through their answer sheet as the Delhi High Court today directed the ICAI to provide a certified copy of the paper to students under the Right to Information Act.
Justice S Ravinder Bhat said the answersheet cannot be excluded from the purview of Right to Information Act and the examination authority cannot deny the same to students under the Act.
Observing that the Act confers positive power to citizens which should not be hindered by authorities, the court dismissed the plea of Institute of Chartered Accountants of India challenging CIC's order to provide certified copy of the answer sheet to a student who could not clear the exam.
"ICAI is an institute. You should apply pragmatism and make example to others. You should start by yourself... Many institutes do that and allow students to inspect their copies," Justice Bhat said.
The court also rejected ICAI' argument that students have no right to seek disclosure of their answer sheet and it does not come under the purview of the RTI Act.
The Additional Solicitor General of India Parag Tripathi, appearing for ICAI, submitted that the Supreme court in its order of 2007 has rejected the candidates' right to demand answer sheets. __________________

i think one thing we have to see is that ICAI is set up by an act of Parliament and if it is so then we people can legally go for using RTI Act on ICAI.....can anyone put some further more light !!!

I fully agree with Mr. Azhar. ICAI is very much a body created by govt. and it very well comes under the purview of public authority. Now the question whethr it can divulge the answer sheets of the students finds no further controversy. ofcourse it is liable to show the answer sheet. ICAI is just entagling the case in the Supreme court to lengthen the time period when ultimately it can't hide such information under the garb of security of exams system.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
