I have registered with ICAI (Kolkata) in October,2008 with a fee of Rs.3,500/- and then appeared CPT Exam in December,2008. But could not passed the same. Then up to present I never appear for the exam and now I want to appear for the CPT.
My question: My registration is valid till now as I just appeared only once? or I have to register again?
Kindly advice me what to do for the same?
Thanks
Dear Soumen,
Please go through the following:
1. Initial registration for Common Proficiency Course (CPC) is valid for 3 years.
2. Re-validation of registration shall be done for further period of 3 years before
expiry of initial registration. Students who have got their registration re-validated
with the concerned Decentralized Offices may have the registration re-validated
every 3 years after the expiry of the earlier re-validated period.
3. Fee for re-validation is Rs. 300/- for each re-validation.
4. Students are required to ensure before applying for admission to CPT examination
that they have valid registration.
5. CPT students who have registered on or before 30th November, 2008 are required
to re-validate their registration before applying for December, 2011 CPT
examination.
It may be noted that if a student appears in the CPT examination without having valid registration, he shall have to pay a penal fee of Rs. 250/- (in addition to the prescribed revalidation fee with retrospective effect) within 30 days prior to the date of declaration of results.
Candidates, whose period of initial registration has expired, may apply for revalidation by making an application on plain paper, together with the prescribed fee by way of Demand Draft drawn in favour of “The Secretary, The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, payable at Mumbai/ Chennai/ Kolkata/ Kanpur/Delhi” as the case may be and forward the same to the Decentralised Office concerned at Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Kanpur and Delhi. The above decision of the Council shall be applicable from December, 2011 examination onwards.
