The GAT-B 2026 scorecard contains important information such as the candidate's name, roll number, category, subject-wise marks, total score, percentile, and All India Rank (AIR). The AIR plays a crucial role in determining seat allotment during the DBT counselling process for postgraduate biotechnology programmes.
Conducted by NTA on behalf of the Regional Centre for Biotechnology (RCB), GAT-B serves as the gateway to DBT-supported postgraduate biotechnology programmes. More than 70 participating institutes across India accept GAT-B scores for admissions.
How to Download the GAT-B 2026 Scorecard and Rank Card?
Candidates can download their scorecard and rank card by following these steps:
- Visit the official website at exams.nta.nic.in/gat-bet.
- Click on the GAT-B 2026 Scorecard or Rank Card download link.
- Enter your application number, password or date of birth, and the security code.
- Click on Submit to access your candidate dashboard.

- Take a printout for future counselling and admission purposes.
What Does the GAT-B Rank Card Decide?
The All India Rank (AIR) is the basis for DBT counselling seat allotment. Higher-ranked candidates have better chances of securing admission to prestigious institutions such as the Regional Centre for Biotechnology (RCB) and the National Institute of Immunology (NII), along with several DBT-supported university departments.
In addition to admission opportunities, selected candidates may also become eligible for a DBT-JRF-linked stipend during their postgraduate programme, making the rank card significant from both academic and financial perspectives.
GAT-B is linked to a centrally funded PG stipend in biotechnology. A strong rank can secure both a seat and direct financial support during the master's programme.
Action Plan for Candidates
- Download the scorecard and rank card from the official portal.
- Verify your name, category, marks, percentile, and All India Rank for any discrepancies.
- Save digital copies and keep at least two printed copies for counselling.
- Monitor the DBT counselling portal for registration and seat allotment updates.
- Keep all educational certificates, identity proof, category certificates (if applicable), and other required documents ready for verification.
Watch for the DBT counselling schedule and the seat matrix release. Both are expected on the official portal in the coming weeks.
