It is absolutely not necessary to complete Bachelor of Commerce to apply for Chartered Accountancy course. If you have completed 12th standard, it is enough to apply for the Chartered Accountancy.

The advantage of doing Bachelor of Commerce is that you can be given exemption from appearing for the Common Proficiency Test. There is a provision under the rules set by the ICAI that a graduate student can be given exemption from appearing for Common Proficiency Test.

If you have completed commerce graduation with 55 percent or non commerce graduation with 60 percent, it makes you eligible not to appear for the Common Proficiency Test and directly apply for the IPCC.

However if you are applying for CA after 12th then it becomes necessary to clear the Common Proficiency Test. You will have to appear for it in June or December when it takes place.

There are two groups of two subjects each in Common Proficiency Test. You will have to clear both with 30 percent or more marks to get admission for the IPCC. Here are the four subjects.


1. Fundamentals of Accountancy

2. Economics

3. Mercantile Law

4. Quantitative Aptitude


Your next step would be to take admission for IPCC. It will be followed by 3 years articleship and in the end it will be Final Examination.

I have opted computer science for 11th and 12th .Can I go for CA directly after 12th or is it necessary to go for B.Com before CA?

I have just now completed my HSC with 83% in commerce stream.I have taken IT as a subject but has not did Maths.So
