Questions related to CS Professional Exam

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to CS Professional Exam ?

Hello Alisha!

The CS Exam is conducted by a government-recognized body, the Institute of Company Secretaries of India. However, the relation of the CS Exam with immediate Government jobs is no direct correlation. Instead, it is a professional certification to be a Company Secretary in India for the purpose of practicing corporate governance, compliance, and legal advisory.

Of course, besides a lot of private sector opportunities available and afterwards after passing CS exams, employment opportunities in the public sector are also there, although government jobs for Company Secretaries also exist on the platter, predominantly in Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) or regulatory bodies like SEBI or RBI, it so does not guarantee an immediate job in the government. Instead, the certifications open doors to numerous career paths in corporate and legal fields.


CS Exam Syllabus:

  • Foundation Level

For students who have completed 12th:

  • Business Environment
  • Business Laws
  • Ethics and Entrepreneurship
  • Business Economics
  • Accounting and Auditing

Executive Level (immediately after Foundation or directly after completing the degree programme):

  • Company Law
  • Securities Laws
  • Tax Laws
  • Corporate Management

Professional Level: Advanced topics in governance, finance, and laws.

Passing all three levels will pave the way to become a qualified Company Secretary.

Thankyou!

Hello Saniya,

if you can read the module in one go and can revise the same Atleast 3 to 4times  from august month to December then you should definatelly go for it.

But if you are having a doubt in mind if you cant clear CSEET or Cs group 1 then my advice for you to go for both the modules in June 2023 and clear both module in 1st attempt if possible and try harder to do so.

Start your preperation early for that and appear for both modules in June 2023.


I hope I had help you with this. All the Best.
