hey friends I am giving my final exam now and from 1st paper itself I have made the use of black pen to rite column headings and make paper good in presentation sense and I have been able to complete the papers by time so I dnt found any time constrain and I was OK with it but many of my friends asked me whether m I sure that c black pen is allowed in exam? I am now worried are we allowed to use black pen to do what I did?

I'm an ipcc student and I always wrote my exams with black pen that was never a prob but donno abt the usage as column headings
As per ICAI, you can use EITHER blue or black ball point pen but NOT both. If you use black color pen for column headings and blue for the content, that will be considered as unfair means. Please read the "INSTRUCTIONS TO CANDIDATES" given along with your hall ticket.
Ohk I have to read this in depth coz I have used both pens I k really worried for this...
friends plz suggest if it is prohibited then what should I do to overcome this? I means I genuinely did just Ti improve the presentation but now I fear that I have committed a mistake coz no one knows what's right....

Hey there, it's perfectly fine if you use black or/and blue ink to highlight and write, as long as , no other ink you're using. Dear friend, just focus on our last paper now, all the very best !
Nothing to worry, just chill out and enjoy your work or holidays.
