ICAI holds its nationwide convocation today, Saturday, September 12, 2026, across 23 cities. Certificates of Membership and, where applicable, Certificate of Practice will be conferred. Eligibility covers members enrolled between May 1 and August 15, 2026, while CA Final May 2026 rank holders will be felicitated. Check your official email for your slot and centre-specific reporting instructions.
ICAI’s Members and Students Services Directorate has emailed eligible participants venue, reporting time, and confirmation steps. The Institute also advises contacting the concerned regional office or branch for assistance. Keep your phone reachable and inbox filtered for ICAI emails so you do not miss last‑minute updates or verification messages before entry.

Only members enrolled from May 1 to August 15, 2026 are invited for today’s ceremony, and May 2026 CA Final rankers will receive rank certificates on stage. If you fall outside this window, do not travel to a venue without written confirmation. Use the official contact lines below to clarify any edge cases or mismatches.

For escalations or last‑minute clarifications, call the M&SS Directorate helplines at 0120‑3045997/998. If your venue differs from the table, rely on the ICAI email you received. Centres may stagger participants by membership series, so follow only the slot assigned to you.
Recent ICAI invitations have specified strict formal attire. Carry a government photo identity and your printed or digital invitation email for registration desk verification. Keep a passport photo handy if your mail asked for it. When in doubt, follow the exact instructions contained in your centre’s email.
Reach 45–60 minutes early to clear security, collect your kit, and locate your queue. Travel light, avoid large bags, and prefer public transport where feasible. Save helpline numbers and emails locally for offline use. If you anticipate delays, inform the branch contact promptly to avoid re‑sequencing problems at the hall.
Search your inbox and spam for ICAI messages, then contact your regional office or the city email listed above. ICAI’s announcement expressly advises participants to coordinate with the concerned office for any queries. Do not attempt walk‑in attendance without written confirmation of slot and centre.
Today is a milestone. Verify your slot from the official email, arrive early in formal attire, and bring a valid photo ID with your invitation. Keep helplines handy and follow staff instructions at entry. If anything is unclear, use the regional contacts or M&SS numbers before you set out. Congratulations.
