Questions related to CSEET

Have a question related to CSEET ?

I plan to take the CSEET exam in July 2025 but would like to register earlier, possibly i study materials in advance. Is it possible to register in December but take the exam in July? If so, how do I specify which exam attempt I want to appear for, or does the system automatically assign me the next available session?

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 !
