Good day and thanks in advance for solving my doubt,
I wrote final examinations in May 2014, (Fourth Attempt) but failed in ISCA, and applied for certified copies. There I found this issue,
1. For answer to question 1 (b), the answer I wrote was almost the same as given in Practice Manual or Suggested Answer. But I was awarded a Zero for that.
Is there any remedy to rectify the same? When I ask my friends, they say that only totaling errors are rectified, and owing to Regulation 39(2) and Regulation 39(4) of ICAI Regulations, 1988, it cannot be rectified. Please explain the implications of these regulations.
In the absence of any such chance of rectification, the correction appears to be capricious and arbitrary. I would have to just keep writing on exams, hoping one day that I would qualify in this game of chance and luck.

you can still challenge it in the court of law on the grounds of arbitrary and capricious application of regulations as framed by the Parliament.
ICAI powers are for overall moderation. If you are able to exhibit that you have been singled out, you might be able to claim relief.
