I have completed my final year of bcom this year and i have my marksheet of 6th sem and i have scored more than 55% marks overall but i have one backlog in 5th sem which will be cleared in november this year. Can I register for CA direct entry right now to give my attempt in may 25 exam?
Hello Aspirant
The eligibility criteria for appearing in the CA direct entry exam are that
1) If the candidate is from a commerce background, he/she must have acquired at least 55% aggregate in their graduate/postgraduate exam
2) If the candidate is from a non-commerce background, he/she must have acquired 60% aggregate in their graduate/postgraduate examination.
Now, if you are sure that you will be able to clear your backlog before May of 2025, before the CA exam, then yes, you can fill out the form. But if you can't, then you won't be eligible to appear for the exam.
I would suggest that you fill out the form for CA Direct Entry because your exam is in November so there is no doubt in whether the exam will be held before your CA exam or after that. Because you only have a backlog in one semester, you can surely pass it in first attempt
Hope this helps
