I have completed Diploma after class 10th. Am I eligible for CA?

Eligibility qualification/ requirement to enrol for Accounting Technician Course (ATC) of ICAI is as follows: (a) A candidate is eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course (ATC) on passing the Common Proficiency Test and Senior Secondary Examination (10+2 examination) conducted by an examining body constituted by law in India or an examination recognized by the Central Government as equivalent thereto. (b) A candidate who has already passed Entrance Examination or Foundation Examination or Professional Education (Examination-I) shall be eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course subject to complying with relevant conditions. (c) A candidate who was already registered for erstwhile Intermediate/ Professional Education (Course-II)/ Intermediate (Professional Competence) Course shall be eligible for enrolment to Accounting Technician Course subject to complying with relevant conditions. Students who have registered for the Intermediate (IPC) course without the option of ATC can also opt Accounting Technician Course subsequently. Currently Diploma awarded by Polytechnics after 10th do not meet above mentioned eligibility criteria and therefore are not eligible to become CA.

To appear for the CA foundation examination (i.e. first level of CA), one needs to qualify the higher secondary examination (10+2 examination) conducted by an examining body constituted by law in India (or an examination recognized by the Central Government as equivalent). You can refer to the below link for the list of examinations treated as equivalent to higher secondary examination: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://resource.cdn.icai.org/45775bos35949foundation-eligibility.pdf" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>https://resource.cdn.icai.org/45775bos35949foundation-eligibility.pdf</a>
