If you sensed a nationwide silence today at 2 PM, that is because thousands of CA aspirants were refreshing the ICAI website like their lives depended on it. And for many, it kind of did. The ICAI CA results May 2025 are officially out, and the pass percentages are a friendly reminder that becoming a Chartered Accountant isn’t for the faint-hearted.
CA Final & Inter Results: Fewer Than 1 in 5 Crossed the Finish Line
The CA Final May 2025 results revealed a tough reality: only 18.75% of candidates who appeared for both groups made it through. Group 1 saw a slightly better 22.38% pass rate, while 26.43% cleared Group 2 individually. It was a similar story in CA Intermediate with just 13.22% clearing both groups. So yes, if you’re one of them, take a bow.

In the CA Foundation exams, the pass percentage stood at 15.09%. Translation: roughly 85 out of every 100 candidates will now spend the weekend rethinking life choices.
But it’s not all gloom. Vrinda Agarwal, the CA Foundation topper, scored a stellar 90.5%. Meanwhile, Rajan Kabra topped CA Final with 516 marks out of 600. If you’re looking for inspiration, start there.
