Step by step
- 01
Clear both Intermediate groups

Register on the SSP portal
Apply for Final registration through your existing Self Service Portal account and pay the prescribed fee.
- 03
Complete the prescribed training
Advanced integrated courses on information technology and soft skills, and the practical training requirement, must be completed as notified before you can appear.
- 04
Plan your attempt window
Final eligibility depends on the stage of your practical training. Work backwards from the attempt you are targeting and confirm the eligibility conditions early.
Documents you will need
- Intermediate pass certificate for both groups
- Articleship registration and training records
- Certificates for the prescribed advanced training courses
- Photograph and signature in prescribed formats
What usually goes wrong
- Delaying registration and losing preparation lead time
- Not completing the prescribed advanced training courses before the eligibility cut-off
- Misjudging the practical training stage required to appear for a given attempt
- Assuming Final syllabus content matches an older scheme's material

Talk to usWhen can I appear for CA Final?
Eligibility depends on completing the prescribed portion of practical training and the required courses. Confirm the exact conditions applicable to your scheme and attempt on the ICAI website.
Should I attempt both Final groups together?
It depends on your available study time alongside articleship. Attempting both maximises efficiency if you can sustain the load; attempting singly reduces risk when time is constrained.
How long is Final registration valid?
Registration is valid for a fixed term, after which revalidation is required. Check the current validity and revalidation fee notified by ICAI.
The form takes an hour. The syllabus takes a year.
