Friends see the below instructions written on the backside of the admit card which i received.
Read the 25th point below where i bold and changed the color for reference, indicating write the exams either in blue or black pen but in no other color.... That indicating itself saying you can use.
1.Immediately on receipt of the Admit card, every candidate is expected to verify all the facts, i.e. Roll No., Name, Group or Groups or Unit, Examination Timing/Session, Dates of examination, Sequence of Papers, Examination Centre etc. In case of doubt he/she is expected to approach the Superintendent concerned or the Additional Secretary (Exams.), sufficiently in advance.
2.The doors of the examination halls will be opened half an hour before the time specified for the commencement of the examination in each session. All candidates should be inside the examination hall before the scheduled time of the commencement of the examination. It may be noted that the Superintendents have been advised to verify the identity of each candidate at the time of his/her entry into the examination hall. The admit card downloaded from our website which does not bear the photograph of the candidate is also a valid admit card and the identity of a candidate will be determined with the help of the image of the candidate and his specimen signature on the Attendance Register. Candidates are, however, advised, in their own interest, to carry with them (along with the admit card down-loaded from website) the identity cards issued to them at the time of their registration for articles (erstwhile Intermediate)/Professional Education Course/ Professional Competence Course by the Board of Studies section of the Decentralized Office or the identity card issued to them by the Decentralized Office at the time of their registration as articled clerks or (where applicable) the identity cards earlier issued by the Examination Department of the Institute if the same are still valid.

By reference to the number of printed pages and the number of questions in the question paper which will be found printed on the front page, every candidate is expected to satisfy himself / herself that the question paper issued to him/her is complete. Similarly, if the answer book supplied is defective or the candidate has inadvertently written wrong Roll Number etc. or at wrong place, the answer book should be exchanged before the commencement of examination.
6.No candidate shall bring with him/her into the examination hall or carry on his/her person any paper, book, notes or any other material nor shall he/she communicate with any other candidate in the examination hall or in the premises, when the examination is in progress. Any infringement of this instruction is likely to result in the candidate concerned being expelled from the examination hall or otherwise dealt with.

In order to avoid wastage, candidates will be issued additional answer books only after they have used the main answer book. No candidate shall tear a leaf of an answer book.
