In other words, candidates appearing in the exempted papers despite an endorsement to the effect in the Admit Card shall be doing so at their own risk and responsibility and the Institute may not be held responsible for any eventuality which may arise at a later date. In case of any doubt regarding the applicability of rules regarding the exemptions, it would be better if the candidates seek prior clarifications from the Institute by writing at Grievance Portal at http://support.icsi.edu before appearing in the examination of exempted subjects or seeking cancellation of exemptions granted.
