Another update from the organizing authorities states that aspirants can sit for a maximum of 2 documents at a time in 2021. They can choose 2 papers/subjects from a pre-decided list of combinations. This decision is taken to strengthen interdisciplinary studies. Previously candidates could only apply for 1 paper.
