CA Final Group II begins on November 9, with papers on November 11 and 13. Exam timing is 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Paper 6 runs 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Report by 1:30 pm. Reading time runs 1:45 pm to 2:00 pm. Use this precise checklist to avoid last‑minute errors.
Carry a printed admit card and an original photo identity. Pack two working pens and a spare. Bring your permitted calculator. If the admit card photo or signature is unclear, carry an attested sheet. Attach a recent photograph and your signature on that sheet. Keep one photocopy ready for centre records.

CA Final Group II dates, timings, and reporting window
Reach the centre gate by 1:15 pm to clear entry checks calmly. Target the hall by 1:30 pm. Use the 1:45 pm to 2:00 pm reading window well. Mark question choices early for Paper 6, which ends at 6:00 pm. Avoid late arrival; gates may close before 2:00 pm.

Admit card, ID and photo issues: what invigilators accept
Take a clear, single‑side print of your admit card. Check the medium and paper sequence. Bring one original government photo ID. Do not rely on a soft copy. Hand the attested sheet when asked. Request the invigilator to record verification on the attendance sheet.
Permitted calculator rules for CA Final candidates
Use only a battery‑operated, non‑programmable, 12‑digit calculator with up to two memories. Clear memory before entry and show it if asked. Carry a spare battery. Disable any additional functions. Label your device with your name. Sharing is not allowed and can invite unfair means reporting. Avoid mini‑printers or paper rolls. Keep a simple backup device.
Banned items, hydration, snacks and restroom plan
Leave phones, smartwatches, notes, and Bluetooth devices at home. Keep stationery in a transparent pouch. Carry a transparent water bottle if your centre allows; avoid labels. Snack only outside the hall during breaks, if permitted. Use the restroom before reading time. Later breaks are supervised and time is not compensated.
Centre or medium mismatch, travel buffers, and observation window
For centre or medium mismatch, alert the Centre Superintendent immediately and get a written note. Raise a ticket through the exam portal the same day, attaching evidence. For Delhi‑NCR candidates, start earlier due to traffic and pollution controls. The observation window for paper issues remains open until November 18.
Pack tonight, set alarms, and keep documents in a clear folder. Reach by 1:15 pm, settle by 1:30 pm, and use the 1:45 pm reading slot wisely. Respect calculator and discipline rules to avoid disruption. If something seems wrong, document and escalate quickly. Finish strong on November 9, 11, and 13.
