	Hi, I am from the direct entry scheme of ICAI in which a student can start the articleship before appearing for IPCC. I have cleared TY.BCom in 2011 and started for Articleship on 26th November, 2012. I appeared for IPCC in November 2013 and cleared both groups. So acording to the new notification of eligibility of Final attempt affter 2 years, am I eligible for May 2015 attempt as I am completing my 2 years and 5 months of articleship on the date of exam i.e May 2015.

First of all congratulations Bhushan ,

Secondly There are many people/Students/Memeber who still believe that there is a notification which states there is a provision wherin a student cn give Final Attempt after 2 years of articles. But there isn't any notification regarding this by ICAI.

Even you are from dirrect Entry mode, but the Rule is for all,2.5 Years of Training is mandatory for appearing into the Final Exam

As per your Articleship Registration as on 26.11.2012 you will be completing 2.5Years of Training around May/June 2015, but not on the first day of MAY2015. so, With Reference to the above you are eligible from November 2015 And onwards for Your Final Attempt.

Regards,
