What CA Foundation covers
CA Foundation is the entry gate to Chartered Accountancy, taken after Class 12. It builds the base every CA relies on — how to record and read financial statements, the laws a business runs on, the quantitative tools used throughout the course, and the economics behind how firms and markets behave.
Four papers make up the level. Accounting and Business Laws are answered in writing; Quantitative Aptitude and Business Economics are objective papers with negative marking, so the level tests clear writing as well as quick, accurate thinking. It suits students fresh out of school who want to begin the CA journey from the ground up. Graduates who meet ICAI’s marks criteria may instead skip Foundation and join at Intermediate through the Direct Entry route.
Subjects & papers
As per the ICAI New Scheme of Education and Training.
Paper 1 — Accounting
Paper 2 — Business Laws
Paper 3 — Quantitative Aptitude (Business Mathematics, Logical Reasoning & Statistics)
Paper 4 — Business Economics
Replace this with the month-by-month plan for CA Foundation as it actually runs at the Hisar centre. Write it as text, not as a PDF — a syllabus locked in a PDF ranks for nothing.
