Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you can appear for IPCC without CPT only if you have completed your graduation with at least 55 % marks. This is called provisional registration for CA-Intermediate course, which can be done in the final year of your graduation. So the two options to enter CA intermediate are by clearing CPT (CA foundation) after 12th or through the direct entry scheme, which is after graduation.
