Could I continue CA later?

Hello,

 

I cleared my Foundation and Intermediate (Group 1). 

However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I have to start working. 

 

I'd like to continue my academics in the future, though.

 

Will I need to reappear for Foundation and Intermediate exams if I want to resume in the future?

 

Please help me understand the rules put in place by ICAI. 

 

Thank you.

Quick Summary
A student who has cleared CA Foundation and Intermediate Group 1 is concerned about resuming their studies later due to work commitments. They want to know if they'll need to retake the exams they've already passed, especially if the syllabus has changed. The advice given is that they won't need to re-appear for cleared exams, but the student is still seeking clarification on how syllabus changes might affect continuing with future groups.

No, you don't need to again reappear for Foundation and Intermediate Grup 1 exam as you have already cleared it.

The reason I'm concerned is that ICAI's subjects inherently required changes in the syllabus from time to time. If I want to appear for Group 2 a few years later, could I continue with group 2, or will I have to revert to Foundation and restart?
