22 June 2013 i cleared ca final in may 2012 n registered myself wid the institute on 1st nov. 12
i gt a letter from icai dated 21st dec 2012 stating dat my name has been entered in d register of members with effect from 1st nov 2012
i knw dat a fresh chartered accountant is exempt frm d cpe hrs requirement for 1 yr(calender)
so was i exempt till 31st december 2012 only and am i now required to complete 10 cpe hours for d f.y 13-14?

22 June 2013 in the first year of registration you are exempt from holding cpe seminar but after that if you hold cop then within 2 years of period you need to complete cpe credit for 60 hours of structure and 30 hours of unstructured learning.

22 June 2013 if not holding cop then the limit will be 30 hours and 15 hours for structured and unstructured learning respectively

22 June 2013 so u mean i'l hv to take cpe hrs fr dis year since i gt registered in 2012?
n i dnt hv cop

03 August 2025 Here’s how CPE (Continuing Professional Education) requirements apply to you as a newly registered CA:

Since you got registered on 1st Nov 2012, you were exempt from CPE hours for that calendar year (2012) — so, exempt till 31st Dec 2012.

For the financial year 2013-14, you are required to complete CPE hours because your exemption only covered the remainder of the year you got registered.

Since you do not hold a Certificate of Practice (COP), the CPE requirement is lower:

You need to complete 30 hours of structured learning and

15 hours of unstructured learning within two years from the date of registration.

So yes, for FY 2013-14 onwards, you should plan to complete the applicable CPE hours as per ICAI guidelines.
