What Is the ACCA Exam & Its Formats in India

Before listing centres, it helps to understand how ACCA exams are conducted in India and which formats are available.

Computer-Based Exams (CBE) & On-Demand (Keyword: ACCA CBE India)

  • ACCA has shifted many exams to computer-based exams (CBE), especially at the Applied Knowledge and Skills levels.

  • Some exams are on-demand CBEs you can choose a date (within availability) rather than fixed session dates.

  • Centre-based CBE exams are held at authorised test centres (Pearson VUE or similar).

Remote / At-Home Exams 

  • In many locations, ACCA now allows remote invigilated exams (you take from home/office under webcam supervision).

  • The same software is used; you must meet technical, connectivity, and environment requirements.

  • This offers flexibility and can reduce travel stress , but reliability of internet, backup power, and quiet room are critical.
