ICAI’s CA Final November 2026 mock tests kicked off on September 9, 2026. Students scrambling for slots, timings and keys can breathe easier. Series I runs this fortnight, with Series II later this month. Here are the dates, access steps, and scoring tactics that matter.
Series I is scheduled from September 9 to 21, 2 pm to 5 pm. Series II runs September 23 to October 5, matching the same timing. ICAI offers virtual and physical sittings through branches. Plan mocks backward from the main exam dates in early November.

Use the rest days to review mistakes and fix material gaps. Mirror exam-day routines, including reading time and calculator discipline. The November papers fall on November 2, 4, 6, 9, 11 and 13. Align subjects so late-September revisits tricky chapters once more.
On the BoS Mock Test Portal, choose Student Login; first‑timers select Register Now. Enter registration number and date of birth, verify with email OTP, and select Final. Then open Mock Test Papers or Knowledge Portal resources. Papers post by 1:30 pm; suggested answers follow within 48 hours.
Virtual attempts are self‑administered at home, strictly following the 2 pm start. Physical sittings run at ICAI branches, using the same papers and timings. In both modes, evaluate against the suggested answers once released. Track topic‑wise errors, then plug gaps before the next paper.
Thirty percent of each paper carries case‑study based multiple choice questions. Build a quick triage: solve direct‑scoring MCQs first, flag uncertain items. Read constraints carefully, compute with materiality in mind, and eliminate distractors. For Integrated Business Solutions, link scenarios across chapters before estimating probabilities.
Series II begins on September 23 and continues on September 26, 28, 30, October 2 and 5. If you miss a sitting, download the paper and key when uploaded. Recreate exam conditions for 180 minutes. Maintain an error ledger and revise weak areas before the next subject.
The window is short, but the structure is clear. Bookmark the BoS portals, download each paper and key on schedule, and protect review hours between tests. Lock these September–October dates now and rehearse exam habits. Smart MCQ triage can secure crucial marks before November’s final stretch.
