The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has postponed the remaining papers of the Chartered Accountants (CA) Final, Intermediate, and Post Qualification Course (PQC) Exams.
Originally, the exams were scheduled from 9 to 14 May 2025.

These areas are currently experiencing heightened security measures, such as blackouts and movement restrictions, especially around Jammu and Kathua in the Jammu division.
“In partial modification of the Institute’s important announcement No. 13-CA (EXAM)/2025 dated 13 January 2025, it is announced for general information that in view of the tense and security situation in the country, the remaining papers of Chartered Accountants Final, Intermediate and Post Qualification Course Examinations [International Taxation – Assessment Test (INTT AT)] May 2025 from 9 May 2025 to 14 May 2025, stand postponed,” the ICAI’s official statement read.
