18 November 2012 Hi Experts,
I want to know about new scheme of exemption from CPT. Is it compulsory to join articleship along with IPCC? I want to appear only Ipcc and after clearing that i will join articleship. But 1 of my friends informed me that as i am planning to avail this new scheme i will have to join articleship parallel to ipcc. Is this true? please guide me as soon as possible.
