Answer:

There are 8 subject papers for CA Final 2019 (old and new scheme) distributed in two groups. Each group has 4 papers which the candidates have to pass individually.
There are a total of 8 CA Final subjects as provided below:
One can not actually say if CA Final is tough. The reason is that there are people who clear both groups in a single attempt, and there are people who can not clear a single group in multiple attempts. So it's up to the level of understanding concepts and dedication towards preparation.
November 2020 is the last session for CA Final. However, candidates of old scheme willing to appear in new scheme of November 2019 can convert for the purpose before September 7, 2019.
CA Final registration has a validity period of 5 years.
