First and foremost, you will be eligible to sit for the BCOM(A&F) term-end examination only if you submit assignments relevant to your course. To do so, you must first download the assignment question papers from the IGNOU portal online or visit the regional centre, where they will provide you with the question papers offline, and then write the answers for those assignments and submit them at the applicable study centre you selected during your course registration. Obtain an acknowledgement copy of the submission status and check the submission status online on a regular basis.

If you have passed your CA- CPT (foundation) and CA- IPCC (intermediate), you will be exempt from writing a few subjects.

The application process for examinations can be done online or offline. Your examination application will only be processed if your assignment submission status is updated online.

If you are applying offline, you must obtain a copy of the application printout or purchase it from the IGNOU office, complete it, and have it signed by study centre personnel before mailing it to the regional centre corresponding to your exam centre of choice, along with a DD for the desired examination fee as prescribed.

In terms of preparation, you should focus on your upcoming CA final exams first, and then immediately begin working on your BCOM exam preparation. IGNOU's study material is more than adequate, and it attempts to cover all of the volumes contained within it.

Furthermore, you can download previous years' question papers from the IGNOU portal (minimum up to three attempts suggested and maximum depending on time available) and try to answer those questions accordingly.

Studied at Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (2017)

IGNOU is a very well known distance learning public university that also offers open courses to its students. The B.Com course in accounting and finance offered at the institute is exclusively available for students appearing for chartered accountancy.

The following are some important points one must know in order to prepare for B.Com Accounting and Finance at IGNOU.

Eligibility:

  • Students must complete 10+2 or an equivalent grade.

  • Primarily, in order to qualify for the degree, one must complete CPT/PE1/Foundation from ICAI for seeking admission to the course.

  • After this, courses are segregated into Part A, B, and C. Of this, Part B is delivered by IGNOU and C by ICAI.

Courses Included:

The subjects covered in Part B include a foundation course, English for business communication, social sciences, business environment, and lastly, export procedures, and documentation.

Evaluation System:

  • Students will be simultaneously expected to study for CA tests as well as be present for the B.Com degree.

  • Part A courses are covered in the precondition of completing CPT, etc. prior to joining IGNOU for B. Com.

  • Part B courses, conducted by the institute will require students to compulsorily submit assignments related to the subjects on time.

  • Submission of assignments makes the student eligible for end term examinations.

Registering for Exams:

  • Students are expected to download assignments from the online portal or visit the institute.

  • An acknowledgment copy must be obtained which will help you track submission status.

  • If students have cleared CA CPT examinations, they are exempt from appearing for Part A courses.

  • If students have cleared CA IPCC examinations, they are exempt from appearing for Part C courses.

  • All students are required to clear Part B courses for the B.Com degree as mentioned in the curriculum.

  • Exam application can be done online or offline. Students are required to mail the concerned regional center in case of offline application submission.

Students can prepare for CA exams and B.Com degree at the same time as all exam syllabus is based on the material taught in class at IGNOU for the B.Com degree. Previous year’s exam papers can also be practiced in order to get a better idea.
