The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has released the admit cards for the upcoming **CA January 2026 examinations** today. This is an important update for all students preparing for the **CA Foundation**, **CA Intermediate**, and **CA Final** courses. If you have enrolled for these exams, you can now download your hall ticket from the official ICAI eservices website.
An admit card is like your entry ticket to the exam hall. It confirms your eligibility and shows important details about your exam. Without a valid admit card, students will not be allowed to take their exams. It is very important to download, print, and carry this document to the examination centre on all exam days.
Please remember that only a printed copy of the admit card will be accepted. Digital copies on phones or photocopies will not be considered valid. Make sure to print at least two copies for safety, and keep one securely with you.
