The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has postponed the CA Final and Intermediate exams that were scheduled for September 3 and 4, 2025 in several centres across Punjab and Jammu City. The decision comes after continuous heavy rains and floods disrupted daily life in these regions.

ICAI has assured students that new dates will be announced soon. Exams in other parts of India will continue as per the original schedule.

Cities Where Exams Are Postponed

  • Amritsar
  • Bathinda
  • Jalandhar
  • Ludhiana
  • Mandi Gobindgarh
  • Pathankot
  • Patiala
  • Sangrur
  • Jammu City

Why the Decision Was Taken

In the past few days, Punjab and Jammu have faced severe rainfall and waterlogging. In some places, flood-like situations have affected transport, electricity supply, and communication networks. Holding exams under such conditions would have put the safety of students and exam staff at risk.

ICAI’s decision is being seen as a student-friendly step. Coaching institutes and parents have also welcomed the move, saying that safety should always come first.

What Students Should Do Now

  • Check ICAI’s official website (icai.org) regularly for the revised exam schedule.
  • Keep your admit cards safe, as they will remain valid for the rescheduled dates.
  • Use this extra time for revision of key topics like Accounting Standards, Taxation, and Auditing.
  • Students staying in flood-affected areas should focus on health and safety first.

Experts’ Reactions

Education experts believe that ICAI acted in the best interest of students. “Conducting exams during floods would have been impossible. This short delay will help students and staff stay safe,” said a senior CA faculty member.

Some students, however, expressed disappointment as they were mentally prepared for the exams this week. But many also said the extra preparation time will help them score better.

Bigger Picture

ICAI exams are known for their strict schedules, but this is not the first time they have been postponed. In the past, natural disasters, elections, and even the COVID-19 pandemic have forced rescheduling.

With more than 3.5 lakh students appearing for CA exams every year, ICAI’s decision affects a large number of families. Yet, most agree that health and safety must come before academics.

Key Takeaway for Students:
Stay calm, use the extra time for practice, and keep checking ICAI updates. The exams are only delayed, not cancelled.\
