CA stands for Chartered Accountancy .

CA course has three stages to be clear for becoming a successful CA.

CPT :Common proficiency Test.
For this examination only Class 12th passed candidates are eligible.
This is simply an entrance examination to CA course.

Second stage :
IPCC : Integrated Proficiency Competency course.

For this stage either you have clear your CPT exam or Must have completed Graduation in any stream from a recognized university.

The government has announced a new rule that the candidates those who have completed graduation can directly register to IPCC exam details.

But for getting direct admission you have to fulfill the eligibility criteria for this course.

For Commerce graduate: 50 %
For non mathematics 55 %
For mathematics graduates 60 %

Hello,

After the completion of 12th, you have needed to completed three stages for CA are as follows:

1. CPT

Thanks,

To be a complete CA you have to clear three level of exams ,i.e,
1) CPT
2) PCC
3) FINAL EXAM
All these exams are necessary and you'll also have to get a training under the guidance of a C.A firm.
The Institute conducts its examinations in May and November each year and has exam centers in major cities/regions in India.

CA stands for Chartered Accountant.

CA course consists of 2 stages :-

1.CPT

2.IPCC.

CPT stands for Common Proficiency Test.

To appear for CPT you need to have completed you 12th.

After clearing CPT only you can appear for IPCC.

IPCC is the second stage of CA course.

With our clearing CPT you can not appear for IPCC.

But there was a change in this procedure by the Government.

The change is that with out qualifying CPT you can appear for IPCC , but you need to have completed Graduation.

You need to have minimum of 60% in graduation for appear for IPCC directly and if your from Commerce Background you need to have 55%.
