The postponement comes following the escalating border tensions because of India’s strategic military response, Operation Sindoor, to the recent Pahalgam terror attack. The consequent heightened cross-border threats and city-wide blackouts across various districts have compelled the nation into a state of vigilance.
What’s Been Affected?
Exams now deferred include the following:
- CA Final Group II: Initially slated for May 8, 10, and 13, 2025
- CA Intermediate Group II: Scheduled for May 9, 11, and 14, 2025 earlier
- International Taxation – Assessment Test (INTT AT) under the PQC programme.
Meanwhile, Group I papers for both Intermediate and Final levels which were conducted earlier this month are to remain unaffected. Apart from this, the CA Foundation examinations, slated to be commenced on May 15, 2025, are still expected to proceed as scheduled.
