I believe you are talking about IPCC instead of IPCE since you have mentioned Chartered Accountancy Course. Anyway coming to your question, as you know quite rightly there is exemption for graduates from appearing for the Common Proficiency Test.

The ICAI has given this exemption for the graduation degree holders but there is certain rules. The commerce graduates should have minimum of 55 percent marks while non commerce students must have 60 percent marks in the graduation.

Unfortunately you have completed Bachelor of Commerce with 50 percent marks therefore you are not eligible for this exemption. You will have to appear for the Common Proficiency Test and clear the exam to get admission in the second stage of Chartered Accountancy known as IPCC.

The Common Proficiency Test is conducted twice in a year. There are four sections in the exam that are divided into two groups:


1. Fundamentals of Accountancy

2. Economics

3. Mercantile Law

4. Quantitative Aptitude

These four sections are divided into two groups. You will have to score at least 30 percent marks in each group to clear the Common Proficiency Test. Only then you can take admission for the IPCC.

50% marks in graduation is enough to take direct admission to IPCE

is b.com with 50% marks enough to registered for lpcc
