No, GMCS2 Certificate is not required for articleship completion. because there is no such guideline issued by institute in this regard. U may also do ur GMCS2 even after completing ur articleship. It is only advised to do ur GMCS 2 during the last yr of ur articleship but it is not compulsory. due to availability and other matters it is not made compulsory and so u can do it after your articleship also

GMCS 2 is nothing do with your articleship.You can do GMCS 2 while doing 3rd year articleship or after completing your articleship at any time .The only criteria is to complete both the groups of CA Intermediate | CA IPCC. You can do GMCS2 after completing your CA final as well.

Dear Omkar, GMCS - 2 certificate has nothing to do with articleship completion. Both are different things. However, if you do GMCS in between your articleship period, then the GMCS training period shall not be considered as absent and you would be considered as if you have served your articleship period. GMCS - 2 completion and the certificate received after its completion is a pre-requisite to get enrolled as a member of the institiute. I had completed my articleship in Oct 10. Cleared my CA Finals in July 11 (For May 11 exam), completed my GMCS Training in Dec 11. Now when I submitted all the documents required for membership enrollment, I was considered to be a member of the institute from Dec 11 onwards only, irrespective of the fact that when I completed my articleship or when I cleared my final examination. So far as your question is concerned whether GMCS 2 certificate is required for articleship completion, the answer is No. There is no such requirement. For articleship completion requirement is you have served your articleship period with no excess leave and has submitted Form 108 with the institute. Regards

Omkar, GMCS 2 can be done even after ur articleship completion. As per the rule of ICAI, one needs to finish the GMCS before applying for the membership of the Institute. Thus, u can do it after ur CA final exams as well. Just be sure to finish it before the result is out otherwise u will have to spend ur time with GMCS even after passing the exam.

Mr.Omkar, GMCS-2 may complete between 19th month and 36th month of your articleship period and may also take after completing our ca final exams., Thank you.,,
