Quick answers

Is this ICAI's official CA Final weightage?
No. ICAI's syllabus gives a percentage range for each section of a paper. This page counts the marks actually set in each of the last 6 papers, question by question.
How many attempts is it based on?
All 6 New Scheme attempts so far, May 2024 – May 2026. Every paper and suggested answer is on the free ICAI resources page.
Does it tell me what will come in my paper?
No. It records where the marks sat. In our back-test, no model that leaned on recent papers beat the plain long-run average by a margin worth acting on.

What this does not tell you

It is not a prediction. We back-tested three ways of ranking these units against the actual results: a plain long-run average, a recency-weighted model, and one weighted by how often a topic recurs. None of the clever ones beat the plain average by a margin worth acting on. 6 attempts is not enough data for "trending chapters" to mean anything, so we do not sell that idea. What you are looking at is where the marks have sat, which is a far better basis for planning than a guess, and still not a forecast. Read the disclaimer.

Every unit, every paper

The free pages show the top half of each ranking at most. The CA Final reports rank every unit in every paper, band them A-must / B-should / C-skim, map each one to the study-material headings ICAI set questions on, and list every RTP and MTP question with whether it came in a later exam.
