CA Exams Postponed Nationwide Amid Rising India-Pakistan Border Tensions
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has officially announced the postponement of the Chartered Accountancy (CA) examinations that were scheduled to be held from today until May 14, 2025. This decision comes in response to escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.
According to reports, the situation at the border has intensified, with Pakistan launching targeted attacks on Indian border districts. In retaliation, India has been taking firm countermeasures. As a precaution, both countries are implementing safety measures, including discouraging large public gatherings to ensure the safety of citizens.
A report by Daily Thanthi highlights that the ICAI, in consideration of the prevailing security concerns, has chosen to defer the examinations. Joint Secretary of ICAI, Mr. Ananthkumar Chaturvedi, stated, “Considering the prevailing tension and security conditions in the country, the CA exams have been deferred. Revised dates for the examinations will be announced soon.”
Students and candidates are advised to regularly check the official ICAI website http://www.icai.org for updates regarding the rescheduled examination dates.
