Hi Priyanka,
If you successfully passed the CS Executive Entrance Test (CSEET) in May 2025, you are eligible to register to appear for CS Executive in the next available session, which will be June 2026. The CS Executive exams are conducted twice a year, in June and December, so you can plan to attempt the exams from June next year after completing the CSEET.

Hello Shreeja,
Since you cleared your CSEET (Company Secretary Executive Entrance Test) in May 2024 and missed the date for a single module in June 2024, you do not need to give the CSEET again for the December 2024 attempt.
You can register for both modules of the Executive Program in December 2024 without reappearing for the CSEET. Just ensure that you complete your registration and submit the required documents before the deadline.
It's always good to check the official
ICSI (Institute of Company Secretaries of India)
website for any specific updates regarding registration and eligibility.
I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

No, you cannot appear for the Executive exam in June 2025 if you give the CSEET in May 2025. To be eligible for the Executive level, you must clear the CSEET first, and only then can you register for the Executive program. Additionally, there is a mandatory gap of at least 8-9 months between clearing the CSEET and attempting the Executive exams. Since the registration cut-off for the June 2025 Executive attempt would likely be in February 2025, clearing the CSEET in May 2025 would not allow sufficient time to register for that attempt.

Hello Bhoomika,
Yes, you can register early for the CSEET exam, but the system typically assigns you to the next available session based on your registration date.
If you wish to take the exam in July 2025 but register in December 2024, you will need to wait until the July session opens for registration.
The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) offers four sessions a year (January, May, July, November). Once the registration for the July session is open, you can select it while registering. Until then, you can still access study materials through ICSI resources or preparatory courses.
Hope it helps !
