Candidates need to score 40 per cent in each paper of every group/course level and 50 per cent in aggregate in all the papers of a group/course level. This minimum mark criterion is applicable to all three courses - CA Foundation, CA Intermediate and CA Final. Candidates cannot move to the next level of the Chartered Accountancy course until they clear the previous level. A very few percentage of candidates get a high score as the scores of All India toppers are usually below 75%. Candidates can take any number of attempts to clear a course level. The process includes practical training as well.

In CA courses, candidates have to pass every paper with a minimum of 40 percent marks. The CA Final is the last level of the Chartered Accountancy course. After clearing the CA Final course, candidates are certified by the ICAI to practice Chartered Accountancy professionally. CA Final exam pattern is prescribed by the ICAI. The exam is conducted bi-annually in the months of May and November. CA Final course and exam pattern is similar to CA Foundation and CA Intermediate but the difficulty level is a few notches higher. CA Final exam has eight papers (Group I and Group II).
