What is AIAPGET 2027?

AIAPGET 2027 is a national-level PG entrance test that gives you admission to MD, MS, and PG Diploma programmes in the four AYUSH systems — Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Siddha, and Unani. NTA (National Testing Agency) conducts this exam on behalf of the Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India. It is the single national gateway for AYUSH PG admissions across government colleges, national institutes, BHU, central universities, and deemed universities.

In 2026, 51,482 candidates registered and 49,864 appeared for AIAPGET. Of these, 27,711 qualified — 19,920 in Ayurveda, 5,934 in Homoeopathy, 1,425 in Unani, and 432 in Siddha. These qualified candidates compete for around 2,274 PG seats in 250+ AYUSH colleges across the country.

After the result, AACCC (AYUSH Admissions Central Counselling Committee) fills All India Quota seats based on the AIAPGET merit list. National institutes like NIA Jaipur, NIH Kolkata, and ITRA Jamnagar fill 100% of their PG seats through AIAPGET. BHU also fills 100% of its AYUSH PG seats through the AIAPGET score. States use the same score to fill their state quota seats through separate state-level counselling.

AIAPGET 2027 Eligibility Criteria

Before applying for AIAPGET 2027, you must check whether you meet all eligibility conditions. NTA verifies eligibility at both the application stage and during AACCC counselling. An ineligible application may be rejected even after the exam. Here are the key requirements for AIAPGET 2027.

Educational Qualification

You must hold a recognized UG degree in the AYUSH stream you wish to appear for. The required UG degree for each stream is:

  • Ayurveda: BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery)
  • Homoeopathy: BHMS (Bachelor of Homoeopathic Medicine and Surgery)
  • Siddha: BSMS (Bachelor of Siddha Medicine and Surgery)
  • Unani: BUMS (Bachelor of Unani Medicine and Surgery)

Candidates appearing in the final year of their UG AYUSH degree can also apply for AIAPGET 2027. However, admission to a PG programme will be given only after they pass their final professional examination and complete the internship.

Internship Completion

You must complete your compulsory rotatory internship by the date specified in the official AIAPGET 2027 Information Bulletin. In previous cycles, this cutoff date has been June 30 of the admission year. In 2026, NTA extended the internship completion deadline on request from the Ministry of AYUSH — watch for similar updates in the 2027 notification.

If your internship is still pending, you can appear for AIAPGET 2027. However, completing it by the official cutoff date is mandatory for final admission. Qualifying the exam alone does not secure a seat if the internship is incomplete.

Council Registration Requirement

You must have a valid provisional or permanent registration from the relevant State AYUSH Council, the Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM), or the Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH) at the time of application. This is mandatory — candidates without a valid council registration are not eligible for AIAPGET.

Eligibility Parameter Requirement
UG Degree Required BAMS / BHMS / BSMS / BUMS from a recognized university
Final Year Candidates Eligible to apply; admission subject to passing final exam and internship completion
Internship Compulsory Rotatory Internship must be completed by the stipulated cutoff date
Council Registration Valid registration from State AYUSH Council / CCIM / CCH is mandatory
Nationality Indian Nationals, NRIs, and OCIs with recognized AYUSH qualifications
Age Limit No upper age limit
Number of Attempts No restriction

AIAPGET 2027 Application Process

The AIAPGET 2027 application process will be fully online through the official NTA portal. Based on the 2026 pattern, the registration window is expected to open in June–July 2027. You should keep all documents scanned and ready before the window opens to avoid last-minute issues. The entire process — from registration to fee payment — must be completed online within the application window.

How to Apply for AIAPGET 2027 (Step-by-Step)

  • Step 1 — New Registration: Visit exams.nta.ac.in/AIAPGET and click on the new registration link. Enter your name in capital letters exactly as in your Class 10 certificate, your date of birth, mobile number, and email ID to create your NTA account.
  • Step 2 — Fill the Application Form: Log in with the credentials you received. Fill in your personal details, academic information (UG degree, university, year of passing), council registration details, and select your stream — Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Siddha, or Unani.
  • Step 3 — Select Exam City Preferences: Choose up to 4 preferred exam cities in order of preference. NTA will allot your exam centre based on your preferences and seat availability.
  • Step 4 — Upload Documents: Upload scanned images of your photograph and signature in the format and size NTA specifies. Upload other required documents like your degree certificate and council registration as needed.
  • Step 5 — Pay Application Fee: Pay the fee online via credit card, debit card, net banking, or UPI. The application fee is non-refundable under any circumstances.
  • Step 6 — Submit and Save: Review all details carefully before final submission. Save and print the confirmation page — you will need it for future reference during admit card download and counselling.

AIAPGET 2027 Application Fee (Expected, Based on 2026)

  • State AYUSH Council / CCIM / CCH registration certificate
  • Category certificate — SC/ST/OBC-NCL/EWS/PwD (if applicable)

AIAPGET 2027 Exam Pattern

AIAPGET 2027 will be conducted in Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode. The exam has 120 multiple choice questions worth 480 marks in total, to be completed in 120 minutes. There is negative marking — 1 mark is deducted for each wrong answer. In 2026, the exam was held at 205 centres across 104 cities, with a re-exam conducted on September 1 for 49 candidates whose Jaipur session was disrupted by a power cut.

AIAPGET has four separate question papers — one each for Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Siddha, and Unani. You must select your stream at the time of filling the application form. The questions for each stream come only from that stream’s UG curriculum. You cannot switch streams after registration.

Parameter Details
Exam Mode Computer Based Test (CBT)
Total Questions 120 MCQs
Total Marks 480 marks
Duration 120 minutes (2 hours)
Marks for Correct Answer +4 marks
Marks for Incorrect Answer -1 mark
Marks for Unattempted Question 0 marks

Medium / Language English + Hindi (Ayurveda); English + Urdu (Unani); English + Tamil (Siddha); English only (Homoeopathy)

Homoeopathy 10,643 5,934
Unani 2,649 1,425
Siddha 734 432
Total 49,864 27,711

There is no choice between questions — you must attempt from 120 fixed questions in your stream’s paper. Avoid random guessing as -1 mark is deducted for each wrong answer. If you can eliminate two of four options, an educated guess is still worth considering.

AIAPGET 2027 Syllabus

The AIAPGET 2027 syllabus is based on the undergraduate curriculum of your AYUSH stream as prescribed by NCISM (National Commission for Indian System of Medicine) for Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani, and by NCH (National Commission for Homoeopathy) for Homoeopathy. Your UG textbooks are your best study material — you do not need to buy separate AIAPGET preparation books for covering the syllabus.

Exam City Intimation Slip — Comes Before the Admit Card

NTA releases an Exam City Intimation Slip before the full admit card. In 2026, this slip was released on August 13, 2026 — about 9 days before the August 22 exam. The slip tells you which city your exam centre is in, but does not give the full address. Use it to plan your travel and book accommodation early. The admit card with the exact centre address is released separately, closer to the exam date.

AIAPGET 2027 Cutoff

The AIAPGET cutoff works in two stages. First, NTA sets a qualifying cutoff — the minimum percentile a candidate must score to be declared "qualified." This is the same every year based on category. Second, AACCC releases admission cutoffs — the actual closing rank at each college and course after counselling rounds end. The admission cutoff changes every year based on competition, the number of qualified candidates, and seats available.

For AIAPGET 2027, the qualifying percentile cutoff is expected to follow the same pattern as 2026. The 2026 category-wise qualifying cutoff was:

AIAPGET 2026 Category-wise Qualifying Cutoff

Category Qualifying Percentile (2026) Ayurveda Min. Marks Homoeopathy Min. Marks Siddha Min. Marks Unani Min. Marks
UR / EWS 50th Percentile 115 / 480 136 / 480 135 / 480 151 / 480
OBC / SC / ST 40th Percentile 97 / 480 119 / 480 118 / 480 Refer NTA notice
UR / EWS — PwD 45th Percentile Refer official NTA result notice for stream-wise figures

Source: NTA AIAPGET Official Result and Cutoff Notice, 2026

Important Points About AIAPGET Cutoff

  • The qualifying percentile is the same every year — 50th for General/EWS, 40th for OBC/SC/ST. But the marks corresponding to these percentiles change each year based on paper difficulty.
  • Minimum qualifying marks differ by stream — Homoeopathy and Unani have higher minimum marks than Ayurveda in the General category. This reflects a smaller and more competitive candidate pool in those streams.
  • Qualifying the exam does not guarantee a seat. With 27,711 qualified candidates and only 2,274 seats in 2026, you need a high rank within your stream to get into a top college.
  • College-wise and course-wise admission cutoffs are published by AACCC after each counselling round on aaccc.gov.in — these are the figures that matter for actual seat allocation.

NTA releases only the qualifying percentile cutoff. Course-wise and college-wise admission cutoffs are released by AACCC and state counselling authorities after counselling rounds are complete. Do not confuse the qualifying cutoff with the admission cutoff.

AIAPGET 2027 Counselling Process

After the AIAPGET 2027 result, AACCC (AYUSH Admissions Central Counselling Committee) will conduct centralised counselling for All India Quota seats. States run separate counselling for their 85% state quota seats using the same AIAPGET merit list. For 2027, AACCC counselling is expected to begin around October–November 2027 based on the 2026 pattern.

Seats Filled Through AACCC Counselling

  • 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats in government and government-aided AYUSH colleges across all states
  • 100% seats at Banaras Hindu University (BHU) — one of the most sought-after AYUSH PG institutions in India
  • 100% seats at national institutes — NIA Jaipur (Ayurveda), NIH Kolkata (Homoeopathy), ITRA Jamnagar (Ayurveda), and other Institutes of National Importance under the Ministry of AYUSH
  • All PG seats in central and deemed universities participating in AACCC

States fill the remaining 85% of government college seats through their own state-level counselling using AIAPGET score as the selection basis.

Step-by-Step AACCC Counselling Process for AIAPGET 2027

  • Step 1 — Counselling Registration: Register on the AACCC portal at aaccc.gov.in using your AIAPGET roll number and result details. Pay the non-refundable counselling registration fee online.
  • Step 2 — Choice Filling: Log in and enter your preferred colleges and courses in order of preference. Fill as many choices as possible to maximize your chances of getting a good seat.
  • Step 3 — Choice Locking: Lock your choices before the stated deadline. Once choices are locked, you cannot change them.
  • Step 4 — Seat Allotment: AACCC allots seats based on your rank, category, and the preferences you filled. The allotment result is published on the AACCC portal.
  • Step 5 — Accept Allotment and Pay Fee: If you receive an allotment, pay the acceptance fee online within the given time window to confirm your seat. If you miss this deadline, you will lose the allotted seat.
  • Step 6 — Document Verification and College Reporting: Report to the allotted college with original documents for verification and to complete the admission process.

AACCC Counselling Rounds (Expected for 2027)

Round Expected Timing (2027)
Round 1 October 2027 (Expected)
Round 2 November 2027 (Expected)
Mop-Up Round November–December 2027 (Expected)

Do not miss the mop-up round if you do not receive an allotment in Round 1 or 2. Candidates who upgrade their seats in later rounds free up seats from earlier allotments. The mop-up round is your last chance to secure a seat through AACCC — participating is always worthwhile if you have not yet been allotted a satisfactory seat.

Top Colleges Accepting AIAPGET 2027 Score

AIAPGET 2027 score is accepted by national institutes, BHU, central universities, and government AYUSH colleges across all states. Competition is highest for national institute seats since 100% of their PG seats are filled through AIAPGET rank alone. Here are some of the most reputed institutions for AYUSH PG admission through AIAPGET:

Institute Location Stream Seat Type via AIAPGET
National Institute of Ayurveda (NIA) Jaipur, Rajasthan Ayurveda (MD/MS) 100% seats through AACCC
Banaras Hindu University (BHU) Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh Ayurveda (MD/MS) 100% seats through AACCC

A total of around 2,274 PG seats are expected to be available through AIAPGET 2027 across MD, MS, and PG Diploma programmes in all four AYUSH streams. The complete seat matrix for 2027 will be published by AACCC before the counselling round begins.

The 2027 seat matrix has not been released yet. The college list above is based on 2026 participation data. Seat numbers and participating institutes may change for 2027 — always check the official AACCC portal for the confirmed seat matrix before filling your counselling choices.

AIAPGET 2027 Preparation Tips

AIAPGET 2027 is based entirely on your BAMS, BHMS, BSMS, or BUMS undergraduate curriculum. You do not need to study anything outside your UG syllabus. If you prepare systematically and practise MCQs regularly, you can qualify with a good rank. Here are effective strategies to prepare well for AIAPGET 2027.

  • Start with UG textbooks: All 120 questions come from your UG curriculum as prescribed by NCISM and NCH. Read every subject from the officially recommended textbooks before moving to MCQ banks or coaching material. A strong conceptual base matters more than memorising shortcuts.
  • Practise MCQs every day: AIAPGET is fully MCQ-based. Solving 100–150 questions daily builds speed and helps you find conceptual gaps. Use subject-wise MCQ books from reputed AYUSH publications and online practice portals.
  • Solve previous year papers: Solve AIAPGET question papers from the last 5 years. This shows the question pattern, recurring topics, and difficulty level per subject. Some topics get repeated every year — those are your must-revise areas.
  • Prioritize high-weightage subjects: For Ayurveda, Dravyaguna, Kayachikitsa, Roga Nidana, and Panchakarma typically carry more questions. For Homoeopathy, Materia Medica and Organon are the two most critical subjects. Spend proportionally more time on these while covering every subject systematically.
  • Make short revision notes: Prepare concise notes on drug properties, important formulations, keynotes, clinical presentations, and defining features of each disease. Short notes are invaluable for revision in the final 2–3 weeks before the exam.
  • Handle negative marking smartly: With -1 for each wrong answer, random guessing is costly. If you can eliminate 2 of 4 options, an educated guess is statistically worthwhile. If you have no idea about a question, skip it rather than risk losing marks.
  • Take full-length mock tests: Simulate the actual exam — 120 questions in exactly 120 minutes on a computer. This builds time management skills and reduces exam-day anxiety. Aim for at least 5–6 full mock tests in the month before the exam.
  • Analyse errors and fix weak areas: After every mock test, go through every wrong answer. Identify subjects and specific topics where mistakes cluster. Focus your next study sessions on those areas rather than repeating what you already know well.
