The NPAT 2026 result was declared on June 22, 2026 on the official portal npat.nmims.edu. SVKM’s NMIMS released the consolidated merit list covering both exam phases, showing each candidate’s merit position, section-wise scores, and admission qualifying status. Round 1 admissions are now complete, and NMIMS is expected to release the second merit list in the second week of July 2026 for seats left unfilled after Round 1 fee payments.
To access your result, log into your candidate dashboard on the official portal using your registered email ID and password. Your merit score, merit position, and qualifying status for each programme you applied to are all visible inside the dashboard — NMIMS does not publish a publicly downloadable rank list.

What is NPAT Result 2026?
NPAT — National Test for Programs After Twelfth — is the university entrance exam conducted by SVKM’s NMIMS (Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies) for admission to its undergraduate programmes across campuses in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Indore, Navi Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Dhule. The NPAT 2026 result is the outcome that determines each candidate’s merit position — the rank NMIMS uses to offer seats in BBA, B.Com (Hons), B.Sc Finance, BBA FinTech, and BBA Branding and Advertising programmes.
The exam ran in two phases between February 10 and May 31, 2026. Candidates could appear up to three times during this window, and NMIMS uses the best score across all attempts to assign the final merit position. Unlike most entrance exams that publish a shared downloadable rank list, NMIMS keeps each candidate’s merit position visible only inside their own login — there is no public rank list. The Phase 1 result was published on April 16, 2026, and the consolidated result covering all phases came out on June 22, 2026.

NPAT Result 2026: Important Dates
The NPAT admission cycle spans several months — from the exam window in early 2026 to multiple merit lists and admission rounds continuing through August. The table below keeps upcoming events at the top so you always see what to act on next. Past events follow in chronological order for reference.
| Event | Date / Window | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Second Merit List — Round 2 Admissions | Expected second week of July 2026 | Upcoming |
| Round 2 Offer Letter Acceptance and Fee Payment | Expected July 2026 | Upcoming |

Ques. Will NMIMS release a third merit list for NPAT 2026?
Ans. Yes, NMIMS typically releases up to three merit lists per admission cycle. The third list comes out only if seats remain vacant after Round 2 fee payments close — usually in August. Keep checking your login dashboard and watch for email notifications from NMIMS.
NPAT Result Previous Year Statistics
Around 80,000 or more students appear for NPAT each year, competing for roughly 3,000 seats across NMIMS campuses — that is fewer than 4 students admitted for every 100 who appear, making it one of the more selective undergraduate entrance tests in India. Over the last four years, NMIMS has moved the result declaration date progressively earlier each cycle, giving candidates more time to plan their admission before the academic year starts in August.
| Year | Approx. Candidates Appeared | Result Declaration Date | Admission Rounds |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | ~70,000 | July 15, 2022 | 3 rounds |
| 2023 | ~75,000 | July 2023 | 3 rounds |
| 2024 | ~80,000 | June 18–28, 2024 | 3 rounds |
| 2025 | ~80,000+ | June 24, 2025 | 3 rounds |
| 2026 | ~80,000+ | June 22, 2026 | Round 2 in progress |
The result has moved from mid-July in 2022 to late June by 2024, holding steady through 2025 and 2026. That roughly three-week shift means students now have more runway to evaluate their options, compare offers across campuses, and make a final decision before the academic year begins.
The table below tracks how the effective qualifying score for the NMIMS Mumbai BBA programme has shifted upward over the years. These are expert-analysis estimates based on past admission patterns — NMIMS does not officially declare cutoff marks.
| Year | NMIMS Mumbai BBA (Expected Range) | NMIMS Bengaluru BBA (Expected Range) | Other Campuses (Expected Range) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 60–70 | 55–62 | 50–58 |
| 2023 | 65–75 | 58–65 | 52–60 |
| 2024 | 72–80 | 62–68 | 55–63 |
| 2025 | 75–83 | 64–70 | 58–65 |
| 2026 (expected) | 80+ | 66–72 | 60–68 |
The required score for NMIMS Mumbai BBA has climbed by roughly 15–20 marks over four years — nearly the equivalent of half a full section. If you are targeting Mumbai, scores below 80 will typically put you on a waiting position rather than a Round 1 offer.
How to Check NPAT Result 2026
Your NPAT 2026 result is available only through your individual candidate login on the official portal — there is no public result link, no downloadable PDF with all candidates, and no SMS shortcode lookup. Here are three ways to access it.
Method 1 — Log in to the Official Portal
- Go to npat.nmims.edu
- Click "Candidate Login" on the homepage
- Enter your registered email ID and password
- Navigate to the "Result" or "Merit List" section inside your dashboard
- Your merit position, section-wise scores, total score, and qualifying status appear on screen
- Download or take a screenshot of your result page for future reference
Method 2 — Follow the Email or SMS Notification Link
NMIMS sends an SMS and email to registered candidates each time a merit list is released. The notification includes a direct link to your dashboard. If you didn’t receive the notification, go to the portal directly and log in — notifications sometimes land in spam.
Method 3 — Reset Your Password if Login Fails
If you can’t remember your password, click "Forgot Password" on the login page. Enter your registered email ID and NMIMS will send a password reset link. After resetting, log in normally to access your result.
Ques. Can I check NPAT 2026 result without logging in?
Ans. No. NMIMS only shows results inside individual candidate login dashboards. There is no public rank list or open-access result page. You must use your registered email ID and password — this is by design, since NMIMS assigns separate merit positions for each programme-campus combination.
Ques. My NPAT login is not working — what should I do?
Ans. First try the "Forgot Password" option on the login page. If that doesn’t work, contact NMIMS admissions support directly through the helpline or email listed on npat.nmims.edu. Do not use third-party sites claiming to show your result — your result is only on the official portal.
NPAT 2026 Scorecard Details
When you log into your NPAT 2026 dashboard, you see more than just a pass/fail status. The scorecard gives a full breakdown of your performance and admission standing. Here is what each element on your scorecard means.
| Scorecard Element | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Candidate Name | Your name as registered during application |
| Application Number | Your unique NPAT 2026 registration ID |
| Quantitative Reasoning Score | Your marks out of 40 in the QR section |
| Logical Reasoning Score | Your marks out of 40 in the LR section |
| Verbal Reasoning Score | Your marks out of 40 in the VR section |
| Total / Merit Score | Normalised total out of 120 — if you attempted NPAT more than once, the best score across all sessions is used |
| Merit Position | Your rank for each programme you applied to — different programmes at the same campus can show different merit positions |
| Qualifying Status | Shows whether you are eligible to receive an offer letter for a given programme and campus |
All three sections carry equal weight — 40 marks each with no negative marking. A major weakness in any one section can drag your total down significantly even if you do well in the other two, since the normalised total is the only score that goes into the merit position calculation.
Ques. Is there normalisation applied to NPAT 2026 scores?
Ans. Yes. Since NPAT is conducted across multiple dates and sessions over a two-phase window, NMIMS applies normalisation to account for variations in difficulty across sessions. Your final merit score is the normalised total out of 120, not the raw marks you scored on exam day.
NPAT 2026 Qualifying Marks and Good Score
NMIMS does not publish an official qualifying cut-off or pass/fail threshold for NPAT. There is no fixed minimum score you must cross — your admission depends on your merit position relative to the seats available in your preferred programme and campus. Based on patterns across the last three to four years, here is what different score bands typically mean for your chances.
| NPAT Score (out of 120) | What It Typically Means |
|---|---|
| 90 and above | Excellent — very strong contender for NMIMS Mumbai BBA; high likelihood of a Round 1 offer |
| 80 – 89 | Good — competitive for NMIMS Mumbai BBA; very safe for all other campuses and programmes |
| 70 – 79 | Above average — should secure Bengaluru, Hyderabad, or Indore BBA in most years; borderline for Mumbai |
| 60 – 69 | Average — may qualify for campuses like Dhule, Navi Mumbai, or Chandigarh; wait for second or third merit list |
| Below 60 | May not find a seat in most programmes in the current cycle; chances improve only if seats persist through all rounds |
These bands are based on trend analysis and are not official NMIMS thresholds. The actual outcome always depends on your merit position in the live pool for 2026. Your dashboard login is the definitive answer — a score alone does not tell you whether a seat is available at your preferred campus this cycle.
Ques. Is there a sectional cutoff in NPAT 2026?
Ans. NMIMS does not officially publish sectional cutoffs. Admission is based on your overall normalised merit score, not on individual section scores. However, all three sections carry equal weight at 40 marks each — a very weak section can significantly lower your total even if the other two are strong.
NPAT 2026 Cutoff by Campus
NMIMS does not officially release a campus-wise cutoff list for NPAT. The effective cutoff — the lowest merit score at which a seat in a given programme gets filled — emerges only after all admission rounds are complete. Based on past patterns and the 2026 exam difficulty level, here are the expected cutoff ranges by campus for the BBA programme. These are expert estimates, not official NMIMS figures.
| NMIMS Campus | BBA Expected Cutoff (2026) | BBA Seats (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| NMIMS Mumbai | 80 – 90+ | 600 |
| NMIMS Bengaluru | 66 – 72 | 240 |
| NMIMS Indore | 60 – 68 | 120 |
| NMIMS Hyderabad | 60 – 68 | 60 |
| NMIMS Navi Mumbai | 58 – 65 | To be confirmed |
| NMIMS Chandigarh | 55 – 63 | To be confirmed |
| NMIMS Dhule | 50 – 60 | 60 |
NMIMS Mumbai has the highest demand and therefore the highest effective cutoff by a wide margin. The gap between Mumbai and all other campuses is typically 10–15 marks and has held steady over the past three years. In each round of admissions, some students with strong scores accept Mumbai seats and vacate lower-preference slots — so the effective cutoff at mid-tier campuses may ease slightly from Round 1 to Round 2.
Ques. Does NMIMS publish official cutoffs after admissions close?
Ans. No. NMIMS does not officially publish programme-wise or campus-wise closing cutoff marks after all rounds end. Closing merit positions sometimes become known informally through student communities post-admission, but there is no official cutoff announcement from NMIMS.
NPAT 2026 Seat Matrix
NMIMS offers undergraduate seats through NPAT across seven campuses and multiple programmes. Total seats across all campuses and programmes combined are 3,000+. The table below shows the approximate intake for the major programmes in 2026 — exact figures, including seats for specialisation programmes like BBA FinTech and BBA Branding and Advertising, are available in the official admissions handbook on npat.nmims.edu.
| Campus | BBA (approx. seats) | B.Com Hons / Business Analytics | B.Sc Finance |
|---|---|---|---|
| NMIMS Mumbai | 600 | Available | Available |
| NMIMS Bengaluru | 240 | Available | — |
| NMIMS Indore | 120 | — | — |
| NMIMS Hyderabad | 60 | — | — |
| NMIMS Dhule | 60 | — | — |
| NMIMS Navi Mumbai | Available | Available | — |
| NMIMS Chandigarh | Available | — | — |
NMIMS Mumbai alone accounts for 600 of the ~1,380 total BBA seats — nearly half of all BBA intake sits at the single most competitive campus. The B.Com (Business Analytics) programme draws another ~600 students primarily at Mumbai and Bengaluru. Check the official NMIMS admissions handbook each cycle for confirmed seat counts, since intake figures can be revised before the academic year begins.
What to Do After NPAT Result 2026
Your result is out — now the admission process begins. Here is what to do at each stage, whether you already have an offer or are still waiting for the second merit list.
Step 1 — Check for an Offer Letter Inside Your Login
Log into your dashboard at npat.nmims.edu and check the offer letter section. If your merit position qualifies for a seat in your preferred programme, an offer letter appears there. With the second merit list expected in the second week of July 2026, check your dashboard daily — offer windows typically last only a few days.
Step 2 — Accept the Offer and Pay the Admission Fee
Once an offer letter appears, accept it and pay the admission fee online through the portal before the deadline shown on your offer letter. Missing this deadline means your allotted seat moves to the next candidate in the merit list — NMIMS does not extend individual deadlines.
Step 3 — Upload Required Documents
After paying the fee, upload scanned copies of the following through the NPAT portal:
- Class 10 marksheet and passing certificate
- Class 12 marksheet (or provisional certificate if your board result is still awaited)
- NPAT 2026 admit card and result/scorecard from your dashboard
- Recent passport-size photograph and government-issued ID proof
- Any additional document specified in your offer letter
Step 4 — Attend Document Verification
You will receive a reporting date for document verification at your allotted NMIMS campus. Carry originals and self-attested photocopies of all uploaded documents. Admission is confirmed only after verification is complete and any remaining balance fee is settled on the spot.
If You Are Still on the Waiting List
You don’t need to do anything except stay alert. The second merit list is expected in the second week of July 2026 and a possible third list in August. Keep your documents ready so you can respond the moment an offer appears. Students who received a lower-preference campus in Round 1 can sometimes upgrade to a higher preference in Round 2 if better-ranked candidates decline their seats — check your dashboard for any upgrade option when the second list comes out.
Ques. What happens if I miss the NPAT offer letter acceptance deadline?
Ans. Your seat is automatically released to the next candidate on the merit list. NMIMS does not extend individual deadlines. Check your login dashboard every day once a merit list is out — the acceptance window is short, typically just a few days.
Ques. My Class 12 board result is not out yet. Can I still complete admission?
Ans. NMIMS typically allows provisional admission for students whose board results are still awaited at the time of counselling. You can submit a provisional certificate or undertaking and provide the final marksheet once it is available. Check the specific instructions in your offer letter, as conditions can change year to year.
FAQs
Ques. When was the NPAT 2026 result declared?
Ans. The NPAT 2026 consolidated result was declared on June 22, 2026 on the official portal npat.nmims.edu. The Phase 1 result came out earlier on April 16, 2026.
Ques. Where can I check my NPAT 2026 result?
Ans. Log into your candidate dashboard at npat.nmims.edu using your registered email ID and password. Your merit position, section-wise scores, normalised total, and qualifying status are all inside the dashboard. There is no separate public result page or downloadable rank list.
Ques. What is a good score in NPAT 2026?
Ans. Based on past trends, 80 and above is considered competitive for NMIMS Mumbai BBA. For Bengaluru, 66–72 marks is typically enough. For campuses like Hyderabad, Indore, and Dhule, 60–68 may be sufficient. These are estimates — your actual merit position in the 2026 pool is the true indicator, and you can see it in your dashboard login.
Ques. When will the NPAT 2026 second merit list be released?
Ans. The second merit list is expected in the second week of July 2026. NMIMS releases it only if seats remain vacant after Round 1 fee payments close. Keep checking npat.nmims.edu and your login dashboard — NMIMS also sends email and SMS notifications when a new merit list is published.
Ques. How many merit lists does NMIMS release for NPAT?
Ans. NMIMS typically releases up to three merit lists. The first comes out with the consolidated result in June. The second follows in July for seats left after Round 1. The third, if needed, comes in August. If seats still remain after all three rounds, NMIMS may conduct a spot admission or roll them into the next cycle.
Ques. Is there a public downloadable NPAT 2026 rank list?
Ans. No. NMIMS does not publish any shared rank list or downloadable PDF with all candidates’ results. Each student sees only their own merit position inside their individual login. This is because merit positions are programme-specific — a shared list would need separate columns for every programme-campus combination.
Ques. Does NPAT 2026 follow a reservation policy?
Ans. NPAT is conducted by a deemed private university — SVKM’s NMIMS — and not a central government institution. NMIMS does not follow the central government reservation policy covering OBC-NCL, SC, ST, and EWS categories. Admission to all NPAT programmes is purely merit-based on your normalised NPAT score.
Ques. How is the NPAT merit score calculated if I appeared more than once?
Ans. If you attempted NPAT more than once in the 2026 window (up to three attempts were allowed), NMIMS automatically picks your best performance across all sessions. Normalisation is applied when exams run across multiple dates with varying difficulty. The resulting normalised score out of 120 becomes your official merit score — you don’t need to do anything extra to flag your best attempt.
Ques. What should I do if I scored below 60 in NPAT 2026?
Ans. A score below 60 makes it difficult to secure a seat at most NMIMS campuses in the current cycle. You can wait for the second and third merit lists to see if any seats remain at lower-demand campuses, but the chances are slim. If no seat comes through, the most practical path is to prepare thoroughly and re-appear for NPAT in 2027 — the exam window structure (up to three attempts) gives you a real chance to improve your best score significantly.
Ques. Can I upgrade my campus or programme after the Round 1 offer?
Ans. Upgrades to higher-preference seats are sometimes possible when the second merit list is released, if better-ranked candidates from Round 1 decline their offers and free up seats. Check your dashboard when the second list is published — NMIMS may show an upgrade option if a seat at your higher preference becomes available. This depends entirely on seat availability and is not guaranteed.
