The pass percentage of both exams is over 22%. There were some minor issues with the rank list of ICAI. Over 60-70 students complained that the scorecard indicated the qualifying status as fail, while the rank list indicated the qualifying status as pass. ICAI has rectified the issue and issued revised rank/ merit list.
