ACCA, the globally recognized Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, offers the prestigious Chartered Certified Accountant qualification, which requires the completion of 13 papers split into three levels: Knowledge, Skill, and Professional. The Knowledge level exams are computer-based and available on-demand year-round, while the Skills and Professional Level exams are held quarterly in March, June, September, and December.
The ACCA qualification is highly respected by accounting and finance organizations worldwide, including BIG 4 accounting firms (PwC, EY, Deloitte & KPMG) and MNCs who hire ACCA Members and Associates for positions across Accounting, Finance, Taxation, Audit, Financial Planning & Analysis, Consulting etc.
ACCA offers exemptions to students who have completed certain qualifications. Exemptions are granted based on the courses studied and the grades achieved. Here are some of the exemptions available:

It is important to note that exemptions are granted on a case-by-case basis, and ACCA will assess each applicant's qualifications individually. You can check the ACCA exemption calculator here - https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/help/exemptions-calculator.html
What is the cost of availing exemption?
Although a student may qualify for exemptions from certain ACCA exams at the Knowledge and Skill levels, they must pay for each exemption claimed. The ACCA charges a fee per paper for exemptions. As of 2023, the exemption fee for Applied Knowledge exams is 84 GBP per paper and for Applied Skill exams, it is 111 GBP per paper. These fees are subject to change.
Are there any fee waivers available?
If a student is enrolled with an ACCA approved learning partner (ALP), you may get fee waivers based on the qualifications. 1FIN by IndigoLearn is an approved silver learning partner. If you apply for exemptions through us, you would save substantially on exemption fees. You can reach out to our student counsellors at 9640-11111-0.
