How introduction of self-paced modules will change the education regime?

ICAI doesn’t want to burden all the students with different economic laws. Subjects which are removed are actually moved to the self-paced modules.

Once you qualify you can choose to pursue further the subject of your choice. It is also to reduce the burden of exams without diluting the course curriculum.

Marks of the self-paced modules will not be added to your examination.
