Use black ink ball point pen only & Carry your own stapler in Exam: ICAI
ICAI Instructions to Examinees has been issued along with Admit card. This time ICAI has mentioned in the Instructions that Students are allowed to Use black ink ball point pen only and they have to Carry there own stapler and stapler pin in Examination Hall.
ICAI has released new examination Guidelines starting with November 2017 exams.
1. Students can now use only BLACK INK pen for writing the exams.
Until last attempt, there is restriction to not use green or red color ink pen.
The reason for allowing only black ink pen is that, ICAI has to scan all the answer sheets to provide them as Certified Copies to students who paid fee.
So, Scanning answer sheets with blue color ink is taking large amount of data. Therefore, this rule has been brought.
Candidates should write the answers only in black ink and in no other colour. Though there is no specific prohibition against the use of Gel pen / Fountain pen, it will be advisable to use ball point pen only since its ink is indelible.
Candidates are also advised not to use red, green ink, highlighter, sketch pen etc. for underlining or highlighting any sentence/Para/phrase as it amounts to making distinguishing mark which is prohibited as stated in Para 17 below. Candidates are permitted to use pencils for drawing graphs, diagrams etc. However, Candidates should take care not to use pencil for writing answers.
2. Students have to carry their own staplers to the exam center, to pin additional answer sheets. Stapler will not be provided by the ICAI at exam centers.
