Corporate & Other Laws is one of the most important subjects in CA Intermediate, and success in it depends heavily on revision and answer-writing practice. Simply completing the syllabus is often not enough, as students also need to retain provisions, understand concepts, and present answers effectively in the exam.
With the September 2026 attempt approaching, having a clear preparation plan can help students use their time more efficiently. This study plan covers a month-wise strategy, revision targets, chapter prioritisation, and mock test preparation to help you approach Corporate & Other Laws in a systematic manner.
For most students, the dedicated preparation period effectively spans June, July, and August. May can be treated as a buffer period for pending classes, backlog completion, or unexpected disruptions. A practical preparation roadmap can be divided into three phases:
June should primarily focus on completing 100% of the syllabus and beginning the first revision.
Key priorities include:
Completing all pending lectures and backlogs
Covering every chapter without selective study
Starting revision immediately after syllabus completion
Beginning answer-writing practice alongside revision
The first revision should be comprehensive. Skipping chapters at this stage often creates gaps that become difficult to fill later.
Once the first revision is complete, July should be dedicated to strengthening retention and improving recall.
Students can focus on:
Revising important provisions and concepts
Practising descriptive answers
Revisiting weaker chapters
Improving presentation and writing speed
For many students, a selective approach becomes more practical during the second revision, particularly when dealing with high-volume subjects.
August should primarily be used for exam-oriented preparation.
The focus should shift towards:
Subject-wise mock tests
Revision of summary notes
Writing practice under time constraints
Identifying and correcting recurring mistakes
Regular mock tests during this phase help students assess accuracy, improve confidence, and develop exam temperament.
Students appearing for both groups need to manage their preparation carefully because the available revision time gets divided across multiple subjects.
Ideally, all classes and major backlogs should be completed by mid-June. This leaves approximately 70 effective study days across July and August after accounting for buffer days.
With multiple subjects to cover, students may have roughly 8–9 days available per subject. Therefore, the focus should remain on completing at least two quality revisions.

Suggested Time |
|
First Revision |
Around 5 Days |

Second Revision |
Around 2.5–3 Days |
For students attempting both groups, efficient revision often becomes more important than repeatedly reading the same material.
Students attempting a single group have more flexibility in their preparation schedule. With fewer subjects to manage, they can target three revisions before the examination. The approach you should follow is:
|
Revision |
Suggested Time |
|
First Revision |
Around 10 Days |
|
Second Revision |
Around 5 Days |
|
Third Revision |
Around 2.5 Days |
The third revision acts as a mock revision and helps students prepare for the short gap available between examinations.
Although the first revision should ideally cover the entire syllabus, some chapters carry significantly higher weightage and deserve additional attention during later revisions.

Together, these chapters contribute approximately 45–50 marks and therefore should be revised multiple times.
After completing the high-weightage areas, students can focus on:
Deposits
Charges
Management and Administration
Dividends
Followed by:
Accounts and Audit
Auditors
Share Capital and Debentures
Prospectus
Incorporation
A practical revision sequence can help students cover important chapters first while building confidence.

This approach ensures that high-scoring areas receive adequate attention before moving to lower-priority chapters.
The source strategy recommends studying three subjects daily. The allocation students can follow is:
5 hours per subject
15 hours of total study time
Dividing each subject slot into two smaller sessions
Many students also find it useful to begin the day with Law and start by writing answers from topics revised the previous day. This strengthens recall and improves answer presentation over time.
