CMA Admit Card December 2026: Release Date and How to Download

The CMA admit card for December 2026 is not out yet. ICMAI had not posted it by 27 October 2026, and it has not announced a release date. The Inter and Final exams run from 10 to 17 December. For the June 2026 term, the admit cards came out on 1 June for exams that started on 11 June, so I expect the December card around the end of November or in the first days of December. That is an estimate, and I will update this page when ICMAI posts the link.

ICMAI does not send admit cards by post. You download and print one yourself, so a wrong name or centre has to be caught in the days before the exam, not at the gate.

TL;DR

• Status on 27 October 2026: not released, no date announced.
• Expected: late November or early December 2026, based on the June 2026 gap of about 10 days.
• Download from the ICMAI website with your registration number.
• Exams: 10 to 17 December. Final 10 am to 1 pm, Inter 2 pm to 5 pm.
• Carry a printed admit card and a photo ID.

When will the CMA admit card for December 2026 come out?

So far ICMAI has given no advance date. June 2026 is the best guide: the cards came out on 1 June, ten days before the first paper, which was a few days later than many websites had predicted. Ten days before 10 December is 30 November.

So check the ICMAI site from about 25 November. If the card is not out by 3 December, write to ICMAI's examination department rather than waiting.

Expect the card around 30 November, give or take a few days, and start checking from 25 November.

How do you download the CMA admit card?

1. Open icmai.in and go to the Students section, then Examination.
2. Click the admit card link and pick your level: Foundation, Intermediate or Final.
3. Enter your registration number, not a roll number, and a password if the page asks for one, then submit.
4. Check every detail on screen before you save it.
5. Save the PDF and print two copies.

All you need is your registration details and a printer. Do it on the first day.

What should you check on the admit card?

• Your name and photograph, exactly as in your registration.
• Registration number and roll number.
• Level and group. A student writing both groups should see both.
• Exam centre name, code and address.
• Paper dates and timings.

If any of these is wrong, contact ICMAI with your registration number and a screenshot the same day. A wrong group is the error that matters most, because you cannot add a group at the centre.

Check name, photo, group and centre the day you download, and report errors at once.

What are the CMA exam timings in December 2026?

ICMAI's time table puts Final papers from 10 am to 1 pm and Inter papers from 2 pm to 5 pm, from Thursday 10 to Thursday 17 December. Group I and Group III papers fall on 10, 12, 14 and 16 December. Group II and Group IV papers fall on 11, 13, 15 and 17 December.

Our CMA December 2026 time table lists each paper by date, and the 45-day plan sets out the revision for this window.

Final in the morning, Inter in the afternoon, eight exam days from 10 to 17 December.

What should you carry on exam day?

• The printed admit card. Keep the second copy at home.
• A photo ID such as Aadhaar, PAN, passport or driving licence.
• Blue or black pens, pencil, scale and eraser.
• A calculator, if the instructions printed on your admit card allow the type you have.

Read the instructions page of the admit card fully before the first paper. It sets the reporting time and the items you cannot take into the hall, and it can change from term to term.

Admit card, photo ID, pens and the instructions page read in advance.

What if the admit card does not download?

Try a different browser and clear the cache first. Most failures on release day are heavy traffic, and the link works a few hours later. If it still fails after a day, email ICMAI with your registration number, level and group. Visit the centre a day before your first paper if it is in a part of town you do not know.

Release day traffic clears in a few hours; a real problem needs an email to ICMAI the next day.

While you wait for the card, keep writing full papers. Gradehunt's CMA test series lets you write by hand and upload, and an ex-examiner returns each paper within 48 hours with step-wise marks and comments. The first paper is checked free.
