The CA Foundation exams are over and students are waiting for the results. The CA Foundation June 2022 Results will be released in August month by the ICAI. So, we’ll discuss what you should do in these 2 months’ time.
After the CA Foundation exams, the Intermediate level will be the second stage of the CA examination. It is significantly different from the CA Foundation level regarding the number of subjects and degree of difficulty. Passing the CA Inter exams in one sitting takes a lot of effort, commitment, patience, and—most importantly—preparation for competitive exams.
There is a saying – “Those who fail to plan, are planning to fail”. Therefore, we advise all CA aspirants to take a break for one week. It’s time to be ready for the next success after celebrating your previous one. To help you develop your CA Inter preparation strategy, we have outlined a few points.
What to Do After the CA Foundation Exams?
Students must first check the eligibility criterion before getting enrolled in the examination.
Eligibility for CA Intermediate
Any student interested in pursuing CA intermediate should have passed their high school (10+2) administered by the appropriate examination body, as well as the CA Foundation exams.
Another rule is the direct entry scheme, where the candidate can get direct admission to the CA Intermediate level if he is a graduate. The candidate needs to have the following eligibility:
- Graduate or post-graduate degree in commerce must have a minimum of 55 per cent.
- Graduation or post-graduation from a non-commerce background must have a minimum of 60 per cent.
The third rule of getting entry into the CA Intermediate is that the candidate must have passed the Intermediate level from the Indian Institute of Company Secretaries or the Indian Institute of Cost Accountants.
CA Intermediate Registration Procedure, Fees and Important Dates
Two times a year, in May and November, intermediate exams are conducted. Students who wish to participate in the May cycle must register for the CA Intermediate course till September. Those who wish to participate in the November cycle must enrol in the intermediate course by March of the same year.
Students taking the intermediate course via the CA foundation path may enrol in either one group or both groups. The direct admission students, however, are required to enrol for both groups simultaneously. Candidates may register provisionally for the Intermediate Course even if they are in the Last Year of Graduation. The fee structure for registering in both groups and individually in each group may vary. Here is the complete details about the fee structure.
Structure of CA Inter Registration Fees:
| REGISTRATION FEES | ||||
| Particulars | Both Groups (Rs.) | Both Groups (USD) | Group I/ II (Rs.) | Group I/ II (USD) |

- In addition to the fees listed above, direct entry students must pay a prospectus fee of Rs. 200.
- At the time of registration, they must upload the following self-attested documents: (I) a Domicile Certificate; and (ii) identification proof such as an Adhaar card, passport, or voter ID.
The CA Intermediate registration is good for four years, and it can be renewed as many times as needed for another four years by paying a cost of Rs. 400, or as the council may determine from time to time.
Once the registration process is completed, students must look into the course structure of the Intermediate examination. The CA Intermediate Syllabus 2022 includes:
- Paper – 1: Accounting Paper
- Paper– 2: Corporate and Other Laws
- Paper – 3: Cost and Management Accounting
- Paper – 4: Taxation
- Paper – 5: Advanced Accounting
- Paper – 6: Auditing and Assurance
- Paper – 7: Enterprise Information Systems & Strategic Management
- Paper – 8: Financial Management & Economics for Finance
Students are requested to go through the detailed syllabus of each subject. Once when students are aware of what they are getting into, it is time to decide the method of study.
Decide Whether to Go for Coaching or Self-studies
Many of your seniors will advise you to go for self-study, but if you observe the CA result pattern, you will find that the passing percentage has significantly reduced. So, it is always better to take proper guidance. Once the registration is complete, you have to take a decision about which coaching institute to join. It is always better to join an institute that offers coaching for all the subjects in one place. This can help you in saving a lot of time.
It is very important to make your decision wisely and choose a mentor that will guide you throughout your CA journey.

If you have decided to for coaching, then you must choose the one that fits your needs and that of the CA Intermediate exams. Also, check the past year’s results of the institutes.

Choose the Right CA Inter Books and Study Materials
Select the books you want to study from if you have decided to do your independent study. Consult with your seniors, mentors, or your Foundation teachers for advice. It’s beneficial to comprehend the concepts from reference books, but don’t neglect to consult the ICAI study materials.
Both Groups or Just One?
Decide whether you wish to appear in one or both groups before the CA Foundation results. So that you can begin the preparation from the initial days. This can help you save valuable time in confusion and you can make a better CA Inter preparation strategy for yourself.
These are some important points to focus on if your CA Foundation exams are over and you are waiting for the results. As already discussed that mentors play a very important role in your CA journey.
