FAQs
What changed in CSEET?

The restructured test is held at designated examination centres in major Indian cities, from 2:30 PM to 5:45 PM, with four papers of 100 marks each — three subjective papers of three hours and one OMR-based paper of two hours.

When is the next CSEET?

The October 2026 session runs on 1 October (Business Communication), 3 October (Fundamentals of Accounting), 5 October (Economic and Business Environment) and 6 October 2026 (Business Laws and Management, OMR based). Registration for that session closed on 30 June 2026 and examination enrolment ran 16 July to 15 August 2026, with a late-fee window to 20 August 2026.

When are the CS Executive and Professional exams?

How do I pass?

At every stage you need a minimum of forty per cent marks in each paper and fifty per cent marks in the aggregate. CSEET has no exemption or carry-forward of marks.

Is there negative marking?

There is no negative marking in the OMR paper of CSEET, Business Laws and Management. The Executive and Professional Programme papers are descriptive.

Can I skip CSEET?

Yes if you are a CS Foundation pass student, a graduate or post-graduate, a CA Intermediate pass student, a CMA Final pass student, or a qualifying student of a recognised five-year integrated programme. Those categories register directly for the CS Executive Programme.

What does CSEET cost, and how long does registration last?

Registration is Rs 7500, inclusive of the Student Induction Programme and Online Classes, plus Rs 1500 examination fee per session and a Rs 250 late fee if you enrol late.
