Revised Procedure for providing inspection/certified copies of evaluated answer-books to the concerned examinees

Guidelines:

1. In case you are a Intermediate(IPC) / Intermediate / Final Old / Final New / Foundation candidate, it is mandatory that you submit your application for inspection / supply of certified copies of answer books, online only, at https://icaiexam.icai.org and also pay the requisite fee on-line through the payment gateway. Physical application by such candidates will not be entertained. There is no provision for submission of application for certified copies of evaluated answer books with late fee.  In case you are Common Proficiency Test (CPT) / Post Qualification Courses (PQC) examinee, you can submit a physical application for inspection/ supply of certified copies of answer books, in the normal course, along with the Demand Draft for applicable fees. Facility of online submission of applications for CPT is not yet available. There is no need to send the printout of the on-line application by Speed Post. You are required to upload a handwritten application duly signed by you, seeking certified copies of answer books, for the purpose of matching your handwriting with that on the answer books. Such handwritten application should be in running handwriting and not in capital letters. In case you are a Hindi medium candidate, your handwritten application uploaded on the portal should be in Hindi. Please note that if the uploaded scanned image is not your handwritten application, but of some other document, your application will not be processed by the office. Such an application, even if it is a "SUCCESSFUL TRANSACTION", will not be treated as a valid application and will not be processed. It may be noted that wherever the Question Paper is on MCQ pattern & answers are written by the candidates on OMR answer sheets, only copies of OMR answer sheet will be provided upon receipt of an application in this regard, under this scheme. Neither MCQ paper booklet nor the answer keys thereon will be provided, in respect of such papers. The certified copy of OMR answer sheets will not bear the Mark's awarded since the same are awarded in the System.

Such Papers include the following:

2. ICAI endeavours to provide you the certified copies of your answer books within 30 days from the date of receipt of your application at ICAI, complete in all respects.

3. Before providing certified copies/inspection of evaluated answer books to the examinees, verification of answer books, within the scope of Regulation 39(4), is also carried out, by the office, suo motu, in respect of all applications for inspection and/or certified copy of evaluated answer book(s) and in case of any discrepancy leading to increase in total marks, a revised statement of marks is also sent to you. Verification under Regulation 39(4) covers the following aspects:  Whether any question or part thereof has remained unvalued  Whether there is any totalling error in any question or total marks on the cover page  Whether there is any discrepancy between the stepwise marks, total marks for each question indicated on the cover page However, it may be noted that re-evaluation of answers is not permissible under Regulation 39(4). However, in case you still notice any discrepancy, within the scope of verification as envisaged in Regulation 39(4), upon receipt of certified copies/inspection of evaluated answer books, you can bring it to the notice of the office, immediately on receipt of certified copies/inspection of evaluated answer books.

4. Re-evaluation of evaluated answer books is not permitted as per CA Regulations 1988.

In terms of Regulation 39(2) of the CA Regulations 1988, the Council of the Institute may, in its discretion, revise the marks obtained by all the candidates or a section of candidates in any particular paper or papers or in the aggregate in such manner as may be considered necessary. The term “section” used in the above mentioned Regulation refers to the category of the candidates whose answer papers are valued by an examiner and such other category of candidates as may be specified by the Council. Marks awarded on the answer books are the marks given by the examiner, based on the actual performance of the candidate. Marks given on the mark sheet include marks awarded in terms of Regulation 39(2) mentioned above.

6. In case you applied for certified copies of my evaluated answer books and  noticed that some part of the answers are not evaluated by the examiner or there is a totaling error or marks awarded have not been carried forward to the cover page or such other matters that fall within the scope of verification covered under Regulation 39(4), you can write to the office about the same, within 30 days from the date of the letter.
