CA Foundation New Scheme 2023

There are currently no requirements for the number of attempts in the CA Foundation course. As a result, students can attempt as many times as they like. The validity of the CA Foundation registration can also be revalidated many times.

There will also be no more cut-off dates for the CA Foundation enrollment, such as January 1 and July 1. This will allow the ICAI to hold three exams every year.
