Promoters holding post acquisition was 60%, Q 1(a)- on customer seeking cancellation before due date, bank will buy 1 month forward contract to buy 1 lac Sw. Fcs. @ 1Sw. Fc = Rs. 32.62 ( We get this rate by applying cross currency rates of 1 mnth forwards) . On due date, the bank will be receiving @ 1Sw. Fc = Rs. 32.42. Hence 0.2/ Sw. Fc loss on account of customer = 1lac * 0.2 = Rs. 20,000/-. In addition, bank charges 0.1% margin on both the above transactions which sums up to Rs. 6,504/- for both transactions. So, total charges payable by customer = Rs 26,504/-. Friends, this is what i have solved.. Plz correct me if im wrong!

I would say that the paper was lengthy as well as a bit tricky.. Guys this being a professional examination we can't expect papers to be simpler.. We should be prepared for the worst.. Conceptual clarity is a prerequisite for appearing CA Final examinations as far as practical papers are concerned..

Dear Students,

We have mail to ICAI regarding the distrubtion of marks and length of paper.

There was one error in Question no 1(d) as contract size was missing and without size u cant calculate the undivided part to be done on forward rate .

Further accounting marking will be tough as compared to SFM and hence if u have done account paper then only there is a chance of good marks .

I hope all the finalist get good marks and become CA soon

All the best

God bless You
