Of course not. Chemistry and Physics are not compulsory for BCA, but mathematics is a crucial subject, thus it is preferable that you focus on it.

Hi Ayush, It depends upon universities. Generally physucs and chemistry are not at all required as they have no relevance with B.C.A. but Maths is compulsory in almost all universities in India at 10+2 level. So be careful while choosing your subjects and take up Maths at 10+2 if you want to do B.C.

Eligibility for BCA Course to pursue a BCA programme, one need not have Physics, Chemistry and Maths as subjects in Class 12th. In fact, candidates who have pursued Arts or Commerce in class XII can also join the course.

Only mathematics is necessary as you have to study so many calculations in real life too.
