New Delhi, July 7, 2025 – The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) announced the results for the Chartered Accountancy (CA) Foundation, Intermediate, and Final examinations for the May 2025 session on July 6, ahead of the scheduled release times. The results, originally set for 2 PM for CA Final and Intermediate and 5 PM for CA Foundation, were made available earlier, bringing relief and excitement to thousands of candidates across the country.

Candidates can access their scorecards on the official ICAI websites, including icai.org, icai.nic.in, and icaiexam.icai.org, by entering their registration number, roll number, and captcha code. A total of 14,247 candidates have successfully qualified as Chartered Accountants this session, showcasing the competitive nature of the exams.

Toppers and Pass Percentages

Rajan Kabra from Maharashtra secured All India Rank (AIR) 1 in the CA Final exam, followed by Nishitha Bothra at AIR 2 and Manav Rakesh Shah at AIR 3. In the CA Intermediate exams, Disha emerged as the top scorer. The ICAI also released a merit list featuring the top 50 rank holders across all levels.

The pass percentages reflect the rigorous standards of the CA program:
