ICAI Exam Dates for September 2025
While the exams in the flood-affected regions have been deferred, ICAI has reassured students that other details remain unchanged as per the earlier notification issued on May 30, 2025.
- CA Final (Group 1): September 3, 6, 8, 2025
- CA Final (Group 2): September 10, 12, 14, 2025
- CA Intermediate (Group 1): September 4, 7, 9, 2025
- CA Intermediate (Group 2): September 11, 13, 15, 2025
Paper 6 of the Final Examination will run for 4 hours, while all other papers will have a 3-hour duration. Additionally, candidates will receive 15 minutes of extra time to read the question paper before the exam begins.
A Relief for Students Amid Crisis
This decision by ICAI is being seen as a student friendly step, considering the safety and well-being of candidates. With the natural disaster affecting transport, communication, and daily life in Punjab and Jammu, the postponement ensures that no student is put at risk or left disadvantaged due to circumstances beyond their control.
ICAI has urged students to stay updated through its official website icai.org for revised exam dates in the affected centres.
Conclusion
The sudden postponement of exams may feel like an added challenge for candidates who have prepared for months. But it also reflects ICAI’s commitment to fairness, safety, and student welfare. While aspirants in other states will go ahead as per the timetable, those in Punjab and Jammu will soon receive fresh exam schedules, giving them time to adjust and refocus.
