The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) has not yet released the admit cards for the Company Secretary Executive Entrance Test (CSEET) October 2026 session as of 21 September 2026. The status on the official ICSI website (icsi.edu) was ‘Not listed’ for the October 2026 admit cards, though the timetable for this session has been published.

The CSEET October 2026 session examinations are scheduled to take place on 1, 3, 5, and 6 October 2026. This session follows a restructured format and is not a remote-proctored exam, a departure from earlier formats. Candidates are advised to monitor the official ICSI website and their registered email for updates on the admit card release.

The CSEET October 2026 session will be conducted across four examination days, with the first paper scheduled for 1 October 2026. Examinations on all four days will commence at 2:30 PM. ICSI has included 15 minutes of reading time, from 2:30 PM to 2:45 PM, for the October 2026 session.

The examination schedule details specific papers for each day. Business Communication is on 1 October 2026, from 2:30 PM to 5:45 PM. Fundamentals of Accounting is set for 3 October 2026, from 2:30 PM to 5:45 PM. The Economic and Business Environment paper will be held on 5 October 2026, from 2:30 PM to 5:45 PM. The final paper, Business Laws and Management, is scheduled for 6 October 2026, from 2:30 PM to 4:45 PM, and will be OMR-based.

Admit Card Download Process and Requirements

Once released, candidates will be able to download their CSEET admit cards, also referred to as hall tickets, from the official ICSI website, icsi.edu. The download process typically requires candidates to enter their CSEET Unique ID and date of birth. ICSI recommends using Google Chrome or Internet Explorer (latest version) for viewing and printing the admit cards.

The admit card will contain crucial information such as the candidate’s name, roll number, CSEET Unique ID, the complete exam schedule, and essential guidelines. Candidates must ensure they carry a clear printed copy of their CSEET admit card and the original photo ID specified by ICSI to the examination centre. Verification of details on the admit card, including name, photograph, registration details, paper information, and examination centre, is advised, with candidates urged to contact ICSI immediately if any errors are found.

Previous CSEET Sessions in 2026

For context, the CSEET examination for the January 2026 session was held on 10 January 2026, with admit cards made available for download from 31 December 2025. Similarly, for the June 2026 session, exams commenced on 1 June 2026, and admit cards were expected to be released around 22 May 2026, approximately 10 days before the examination date.

The CSEET serves as the entry-level test for the Company Secretary course in India. Candidates awaiting the October 2026 admit card are advised to prepare their required documents and stay updated through official ICSI communications.
