The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has officially released the admit cards for the CA Intermediate and Final examinations scheduled for May 2025. Registered candidates can now download their admit cards through the ICAI’s designated e-services portal at https://eservices.icai.org/. This announcement brings clarity to thousands of aspirants across the country who have been preparing for one of the most competitive professional exams in India.
As per ICAI’s guidelines, students must log in using their MRN/[email protected] or Application Sequence Number and corresponding password to access their admit cards. Candidates are advised to download the document well in advance to avoid last-minute issues.
For those unfamiliar with the process, here’s how to download the admit card:
- Visit the ICAI eServices portal at https://eservices.icai.org/.
- Log in with your registered credentials (SRN/MRN/Application Number and password).
- Navigate to the Admit Card section.
- Download and print the admit card for future reference.
It is important to note that the ICAI has explicitly directed students not to log in through the SSP portal for downloading admit cards. Instead, they must use the specific e-services platform mentioned above. The login page, as seen on the ICAI portal, also provides helpful links for exam details and qualification verification. In case of forgotten passwords, a “Forgot Password” option is available to retrieve login access swiftly.
ICAI President CA. Nanda Charanajot Singh and Vice-President CA. Prasanna Kumar D. have extended their best wishes to all candidates appearing in the May 2025 cycle. The institute is also promoting various support videos and help guides via its website and official social media platforms.
As for the exam dates, the CA Intermediate and Final exams are set to take place from May 2 to May 14, 2025. The CA Foundation examinations will follow shortly after, scheduled for May 15 to May 21, 2025. Candidates must ensure they are aware of their specific exam dates and times, as well as the locations of their examination centers.
Additionally, candidates must carry a printed copy of the admit card to the examination center, along with a valid photo ID. Failure to produce these documents may lead to denial of entry. The admit card includes vital information such as the candidate’s name, roll number, exam date, timing and session details, and the address of the examination center.
It is crucial for candidates to check their admit cards for any discrepancies. Should there be any issues with the personal details or exam information, they should immediately reach out to the ICAI helpline or their nearest regional office for assistance. Regularly checking the official ICAI website for any new notifications or changes related to the examination schedule or admit card updates is also highly recommended.
In recent years, the ICAI has streamlined the process for issuing admit cards, moving entirely to an online format. This shift reflects a broader trend towards digitalization in educational assessments, making it easier for candidates to access essential documents while reducing the administrative burden on the institute.
As the countdown to the May 2025 CA exams officially begins, candidates are encouraged to stay focused, maintain a disciplined study routine, and keep themselves updated with ICAI notifications. The release of the admit cards signifies a significant milestone in their preparation journey.
In conclusion, the ICAI has reiterated the importance of being well-prepared for the examinations. Candidates should not only ensure they have their admit cards printed and ready but also familiarize themselves with the exam guidelines and protocols. With the right preparation and mindset, candidates can approach the exams with confidence, ready to showcase their knowledge and skills.
