The PUBDET 2026 merit list and rank card are expected to be released on June 24, 2026 on the official WBJEEB portal at wbjeeb.nic.in/pubdet/.
The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) conducted the Presidency University Bachelor Degree Entrance Test (PUBDET) 2026 from June 12 to June 14, 2026. Unlike many other state entrance tests, WBJEEB does not publish a separate merit list PDF. Instead, each student receives an individual rank card that carries their General Merit Rank (GMR) and category rank. This rank card is the key document required for the PUBDET 2026 counselling process.

What is the PUBDET 2026 Merit List?
WBJEEB does not release a centralised merit list for PUBDET 2026. Every student who appeared for the exam is assigned a General Merit Rank (GMR) based on their total score across all test papers. This rank is printed on the individual rank card that students download from the official WBJEEB portal. Students whose GMR falls within the total seat intake of Presidency University are effectively in the merit list for counselling eligibility.
In case two students score identical marks, WBJEEB applies a tie-breaking rule as defined in the official information bulletin. Category-wise ranks — for students belonging to SC, ST, OBC-A, OBC-B, and other reserved categories — are also mentioned separately on the rank card alongside the GMR.
| Category | Type of Rank Mentioned on Rank Card |
|---|---|
| General / Unreserved | General Merit Rank (GMR) |
| SC | GMR + SC Category Rank |
| ST | GMR + ST Category Rank |
| OBC-A | GMR + OBC-A Category Rank |
| OBC-B | GMR + OBC-B Category Rank |
