Conversion from CPT route to Direct entry.

05 February 2020

Respected Sir/Madam,
I am JEYA SUNDARI . I have appeared for CA Intermediate through CPT Route conducted by ICAI. But I didn't cleared that exam (3rd attempt). I already done my Orientation and ITT trainings. So I would like to convert from CPT Route(Inter-NEW) to Direct entry for join articleship. I have also secured exemption in Accounts(Paper-1). My doubt regarding that Can I join articleship at this March? Can I eligible for appearing this May 2020 exam? What are risks involved in that conversion? and also Can I claim this exemption for May 2020 exam? If I will convert then what are the circumstances needed for applying exam form for May 2020 exam? Because I would joined in March. So I want to know the details about that Sir. Kindly reply for query regarding those things Sir/Madam. Thanks in advance Sir.

Hi JEYA SUNDARI ..I am HARI..
I am also facing this same situation in 2016.
so i am the right person to this....
Dont bother about anything,things are going really well when our hardwork joins...
NOW
First you are freely convert your registration to direct entry scheme by filling related aplication manually which is available in our website by paying Rs.500 (changed may be check once) in DD as conversion fee..
Then you are also eligible to joining articles in this march only...
By this process of conversion students are directly attempt immediate attempt i.e
May 2020 in your case....
The restriction for 9 months articleship is not aplicable to you....
And also you have got exepmtion so if you are getting exemption BEFORE 2018 NOV then your exemption is EXPIRED otherwise your exepmtion also tranfered to 2020MAY.
And you have to apply MAY2020 exam directly in ICAI EXAM site as usually..
There is no risks invovled in this process
so go through it...
But clear inter as soon as possible that mean 1 year of articles is best time only

ALL THE BEST.....

Jeya, even i am into the same situation and today if I'm also here in comment section its bcz I too wanted to know the risks and consequences involved in conversion. I'm very tensed. I even have made up my mind to start articleship , but just few days ago I dropped it when I got to know what consequences n hardships I would face if I join b4 may attempt. Ex. No. Of leaves for may attempt, study management with articleship ( as i haven't clear either of grps of ipcc) nd above that 9motnh eligibility criteria isnot for us that gave me sigh of relief, hence i was very panicking last night whether to start articleship or not. Now I'm very clear in mind. I'm doin dummy for 3months till may st tempt n I will study hard for may attempt n will clear it anyhow..ill have to. No choice

Its an easy process. Go on new SSP portal at ICAI site, login to it. Choose Student Cycle option out of 2options( student cycle and articleship cycle). There you'll get the option of conversion from cpt route to direct entry. Complete all the formalities properly.
