No, you don't need to appear for the CA Foundation exam.

Given your MBA in Finance, you are eligible for direct entry into the CA Intermediate course. The eligibility criteria for direct entry requires a graduation degree with a minimum of 60% marks for non-commerce graduates. Since you have an MBA with 62%, you meet the requirement.

hope this helps you!!

Therefore, you can directly register for the CA Intermediate course without appearing for the Foundation exam.

Greetings,
Typically, candidates with non commerce background (such as arts and science) are required to attempt CA Foundation before attempting for CA Intermediate to build a strong background in Accounts, Law , Business Mathematics and Economics.

The definitive answer regarding whether you need to appear for the CA Foundation exam or if you are eligible for any exemptions lies with ICAI. They can provide you with specific guidance based on your educational background and qualifications.

I hope this information is useful to you.
