The Institute of Chartered Accountancy of India (ICAI) once again has postponed the examination dates for CA Final. The reason behind the move, as explained by the institute, is its exam dates being clashed with Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) examinations, which are scheduled to be held during the same time and many ICAI test centres. As per the new timetable, ICAI CA Final has now been postponed to June 4, as examination centres will conduct the UPSC exam on June 2, the earlier date of CA Final exam. Candidates can check the CA Final 2019 exam date notification, by visiting its official website; icai.org. Check CA Intermediate, Final (Old & New) Courses New Examination Paper Scheme Here. 

ICAI new exam date notification issued on May 15 reads, “Postponement of Paper on 2nd June 2019 to 4th June 2019 was occasioned by the inability expressed by many exam centres to conduct the exam on that date owing to their holding UPSC exams on that day.” Besides, ICAI also clarified that the paper on June 4 that has recently been postponed to June 13, was done to complete the Group I Final examination before the commencement of Group II papers. “Postponement of Paper on 9th June 2019 to 13th June 2019 was necessitated for the convenience of the common candidates of the Foundation Exam of ICAI and the Foundation exam of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India, scheduled on 9th June 2019,” the notice added.

Candidates must note that the CA Final exams 2019 will now be conducted on May 27, 29, 31 and June 2 and Group II is slated to be held on June 4, 7, 9 and 11, 2019.
