The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ( ICAI ) is likely to declare the results of the Chartered Accountancy ( CA ) examination conducted in May 2025 in July. In May, the institute conducted all three stages of the exam, that is the foundation, inter and final.
The May 2025 CA examinations were held in a phased manner, beginning with the CA Final on 2nd May, followed by the CA Intermediate on 3rd May, and the CAFoundation from 15th May onwards. Alongside these, the Institute also conducted the International Taxation- Assessment Test (INT–AT), the results of which are likewise expected to be declared in July 2025.
Along with the CA Intermediate and Final exams, the CA Foundation exam will now be part of the May examination phase, which is an important change this year. The Foundation test did not take place in May until 2024. However, beginning in May 2025, ICAI modified its schedule for conducting the Foundation exam three times annually.
The ICAI press release of 8th May 2024 stated that “In a landmark move by ICAI, Intermediate & Foundation course examinations will now be held thrice annually in January, May/June, and September, as opposed to the previous schedule of twice a year. Meanwhile, the CA Final exam will continue to follow the traditional biannual format.”
And another good news for the CAs that the ICAI announced to conduct the CA final exam thrice a year too deviating from its traditional path. The press release dated 27th March 2025, the institute announced that “In order to align with global best practices and provide students with greater opportunities, the 26th Council of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has taken a historic decision to hold the CA Final exam three times a year. This examination was being held twice a year. Last year, ICAI took a decision to hold the Intermediate and Foundation course exams three times a year and now the CA Final exams will follow suit. “
