sir, I attempted CPT several times but I didnt clear it. after graduation I applied for IPCC direct entry(old syllabus) on june 2017 with conversion from CPT to IPCC DIRECT ENTRY ROUTE.. I have few doubts whether only after completing 9 months of articles i can appear for exams or directly I can apply for exams?Whether I have to join articles before or after ICITSS ?
What documents are required for registering for articleship? Since I have not cleared IPCC, the person at mumbai office said not to give previous IPCC result marksheet.. so do we give CPT result?
