Preparation Strategy For CA FINAL GROUP 2 May 26 [3 months]
CA Final Group 2 – May 2026
Preparation Strategy (3-Month Plan)
Smart Planning. Structured Revision. Consistent Practice.
If you’ve already cleared Group 1 and are now preparing for CA Final Group 2, you’re just one step away from adding the most powerful prefix to your name — “CA”. Professional exams are cleared by strategy, not just hard work.
01 Know Your Subjects
🔥 Important Update: MCQs in DT & IDT
Both subjects contain 30 Marks of MCQs. This is your biggest support to score 60+.
- Correct answer = full marks (Aggregate support)
- No internal choice; requires deep conceptual clarity
- Superficial reading won’t work
02 The 3-Month Execution Plan
February: Strengthen Direct Tax
DT is bulky and concept-heavy. Revise one chapter daily, solve PYQs, and maintain a "Final-Week Weapon" notebook for adjustment rules and frequently tested provisions.
Mid-Feb to Mid-March: Combine Subjects
Study DT + IBS (or IDT if IBS is ready) to avoid burnout. 30 days of consistent effort is enough to thoroughly revise two subjects.
March to Early April: Focus on IDT
Switch focus to Indirect Tax. Focus on repeated revision, MCQ practice, and writing structured answers. Build your "Important Points" summary notebook here too.
Self-Study Rules
- ✓ Make chapter-wise summary notes
- ✓ Solve PM & past year papers
- ✓ Practice time-bound writing
- ✓ Attempt full ICAI mock exams

The Game-Changer Phase:
What You Must Do:
- Revise critical & high-weightage topics first
- Don’t leave any chapter — even small ones carry 10–14% weightage
- Prepare one-pager notes for each topic
- Revise only from your summary notes — not bulky books
Exam Day Revision should feel light and confident — not overwhelming.
03Important Habits to Build
✔ Always write and practice
✔ Use proper headings
✔ Attempt ICAI mock exams
✔ Solve 30-mark MCQs seriously
✔ Use mnemonics for memorising sections
✔ Mark doubts during lectures
"CA Final is not cleared by studying more. It is cleared by revising better."
