Passing Criteria and Previous Pass Percentage

To qualify as a CA Intermediate, a student must get at least 40% in each paper and at least 50% in the cumulative total of the papers in a group. A student can take the two groups together or separately, and a group pass is permanent. The specific data for the May 2026 examinations have not been published and are therefore unavailable. However, the prior sessions provide a reliable indicator for the approximate figures.

Recently recorded pass percentage for the prior sessions is as follows:

  • January 2026 sessions: Group 1: 13.96%, Group 2: 15.54%, both groups: 9.39%
  • September 2025 sessions: Group 1: 9.43% and Group 2: 27.14%
  • May 2025 sessions: Group 1: circa 18.95%, Group 2: circa 23.44%

These provide a reliable indicator that maintaining the low and single-digit pass percentage makes the CA Intermediate exam one of the toughest. The CA Intermediate exam is made up of 6 papers that carry 600 marks, with each paper being of 100 marks.

The scorecard shows the name of the candidate with their roll number and registration number, the marks obtained by the candidate for each group, the qualifying status for each group, and the candidate’s rank in the merit list, if applicable. A candidate who scores 60 or more in any paper is exempted from that paper for all subsequent attempts. It is expected that ICAI will open the marks verification portal on June 25, 2026.
