This note ranks CA Intermediate Advanced Accounting topics by how often and how heavily they have appeared across nine past papers, from May 2024 to May 2026 and the September 2026 exam. Each topic is marked A, B, C or NIL, so you can see at a glance which accounting standards and company accounts chapters need the most time. It suits students preparing Paper 1 for the January 2027 attempt who want a priority-based revision plan rather than reading the whole syllabus evenly.

What the Analysis Covers

The note lists each topic with the question number and marks it carried in every paper, along with a frequency count and an average marks figure. Topics such as AS-14 Amalgamation, AS-21 Consolidated Financial Statements, Schedule III financial statements, AS-3 Cash Flow Statement, Internal Reconstruction and Branch Accounting are rated A because they appear in every paper with substantial marks. Mid-priority topics like AS-28 Impairment and AS-10 Property, Plant and Equipment are rated B, and low-frequency areas are grouped under C or NIL. Footnotes explain how the September 2025 sittings and an internal choice in September 2026 were counted.

How to Use It for Revision

Start with the A-rated topics and practise their question pattern from several papers before moving to B-rated standards. The average marks column helps you decide how much time each chapter deserves, since a topic averaging 14 marks needs far more preparation than one averaging 1 mark. Use the C and NIL rows to limit your effort on low-yield areas, but do not drop them completely, as a single 2 mark MCQ can still decide a close result. Check the notes at the end for how MCQ-only appearances were counted.

Who Should Read This

This is useful for CA Inter students who are short on time and need to prioritise Advanced Accounting chapters for the January 2027 attempt. It also helps students comparing past paper patterns across several sittings, since every topic is traced paper by paper. It is a planning aid alongside your study material, not a replacement for it. The full note is available to read in the Studycaller app.
