I had heard this from one of my friend but not knowing that its there in the Act.

We can't help it because it is there in the Act and to maintain the demand of CAs in the market.

We can do one thing while studying target for high marks then we can get thru.

I think by reading that Regulation posted by you, every failed student will feel that his result is altered...

I mean to maintain the passing percentage (what you have said) Institute did some manipulation in their (who failed) result.......

But I think what you have searched is good one......

I think the word "All the students" is important in that regulations... It is not that You take lottery & pass or fail that student... If the ICAI wants to increase or decrese marks, it must be from the marks of all students....
