Dear sir, pleanse make sure to me ... if i selected hindi mediam of CA Foundation Course so that could u tell me the question paper is in English also or not becouse the Economics and Mathmetics are prepared in english by me. what should i do ???
Hi,
If you have chosen Hindi medium , then question paper will obviously be in Hindi Language. You cannot differ in language for different papers. So, I would suggest you to choose the medium wisely. You can sleect only one for course and question paper will be mentioned in that language only.
How can I download the delecration of student form for November 2020
Can you tell for which exam or purpose you want to know about declaration form, I can give correct information only when you tell that.
After filling of the registration form online for ca final new course, whether the form & supporting documents need to be physically submitted at the regional office of ICAI. please clarify.
Now everything is done online through the ICAI portal. So there is no need for physical submission of documents. You have to submit the form on the ssp portal. You need not go to the institute for submitting the documents.
