# ACCA 2026 fees in India detailed by PW 2026-08-22T11:41:18+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Pursuing ACCA in India in 2026 involves multiple fees beyond just exam costs. The initial registration fee is £30 (approx. Rs 3,840), and the annual subscription is £140 (approx. Rs 17,920) per year to keep student status active. Exemption fees range from £84 per Applied Knowledge exemption to £111 per Applied Skills exemption, and the Ethics and Professional Skills Module costs £83 (approx. Rs 10,624). Exam entry fees vary by paper and entry period. For the December 2026 session, standard entry for Applied Skills exams is £151 per paper (approx. Rs 19,328), while late entry is £387 (approx. Rs 49,536). At the Strategic Professional level, Strategic Business Leader costs £268 (approx. Rs 34,304) under standard entry, and Strategic Business Reporting and Options papers are £191 each (approx. Rs 24,448). Late entry for Strategic Professional exams is £430 (approx. Rs 55,040). Total cost depends on the number of exams taken, exemptions received, completion speed, and whether you choose coaching or self-study. All figures are estimates at an exchange rate of £1 = Rs 128 and are subject to change. ## Indian Opinion Analysis ACCA's fee structure is pound-denominated, making Indian students vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations. The total cost for a student taking all 13 exams without exemptions and completing in three years could exceed Rs 3 lakh. Many aspirants also pay coaching fees that are not set by ACCA, adding another Rs 1-2 lakh. The key decision point is whether to take exemptions, which reduce exam fees but add upfront costs. Watch for the early-bird registration deadline for the June 2026 session to lock in lower standard entry fees. ## Coverage - pw.live Provides a factual breakdown of ACCA fees without any political or editorial slant This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
