NPAT Result 2026: Out on 22 June at npat.nmims.edu, Counselling, Cutoff and Merit List

NPAT 2026 (National Test for Programs After Twelfth) result for Phase 2 was declared by NMIMS on June 22, 2026, at npat.nmims.edu. Over 80,000 candidates who appeared for the exam can now log in with their registered email ID and password to check their merit score, section-wise marks, and admission status across NMIMS campuses. The Round 2 merit list for remaining seats is expected in the last week of July 2026 — check the official portal for updates.

The result is not a downloadable PDF — each candidate must log in individually to see their score, merit rank, and whether a seat has been offered. If you are on the waitlist, the upcoming Round 2 and Round 3 merit lists may convert your candidature.

NPAT Result Previous Year Statistics

NPAT draws roughly 75,000–80,000 candidates every year for about 3,960 seats across all NMIMS campuses — putting the effective acceptance rate below 5%. The exam has grown steadily: participation rose from around 70,000 in 2022 to over 80,000 in 2025 and 2026, reflecting increasing demand for NMIMS UG programmes.

One visible trend: NMIMS has moved the result declaration date progressively earlier — from mid-July in 2022 to June 22 in 2026. This benefits students who need to compare NMIMS offers against other university admissions before committing, since more decisions now overlap in late June rather than in July when many other institutions have already closed admissions.

Competition for the flagship NMIMS Mumbai BBA programme has also intensified sharply. The closing score for that programme has risen by roughly 18–20 marks over four years — more than one section’s worth of questions:

If you scored above 83, you are in the competitive range for NMIMS Mumbai BBA. A score between 65 and 82 gives you a strong shot at NMIMS Navi Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad — all well-regarded campuses with the same NMIMS degree but significantly lower closing scores. The key takeaway from this trend: cutoffs have only moved upward each year, and that trajectory is unlikely to reverse.

How to Check NPAT Result 2026

NPAT 2026 result is not a public announcement — it lives on your personal dashboard at the official portal. Here is the step-by-step process to access it:

1. Go to npat.nmims.edu
2. Click the Login or Candidate Portal button on the homepage
3. Enter your registered email ID and password
4. After logging in, click on the Result or Scorecard tab on your dashboard
5. Your section-wise scores, total NPAT score, merit rank, and seat allotment status all appear on screen
6. Save a screenshot or download a PDF of your scorecard — you will need it for document verification at admission

If you forgot your password: Use the "Forgot Password" option on the login page and reset it via your registered mobile number or email. Always use the same email address you registered with during NPAT.

If the portal shows an error or does not load: Clear your browser cache, switch to Chrome or Firefox, or try a different network. If the issue persists, the NMIMS admissions helpline number is available on the npat.nmims.edu contact page.

NPAT 2026 Scorecard Details

When you log in to the NPAT portal, your scorecard shows everything NMIMS uses to make its admission decision. Here is what each field means and why it matters:

NMIMS does not issue a physical scorecard by post. Your digital scorecard on the portal is the official document — download it and keep it saved. You will submit it during in-person document verification at NMIMS. Section-wise scores also matter if two candidates tie on total marks; NMIMS uses section performance as a tiebreaker to determine merit rank.

NPAT 2026 Qualifying Marks

NMIMS sets a single minimum qualifying score for NPAT: 60 out of 120, which is 50% of total marks. There is no sectional cutoff — you do not need to clear a separate minimum in Quantitative, Logical, or Verbal Reasoning individually. Your total score is what NMIMS checks first for eligibility.

NMIMS does not officially publish separate category-wise qualifying thresholds. The 60-mark minimum applies uniformly. Crossing this threshold makes you eligible for the merit list — but admission is determined by where you rank against all other qualified candidates, and competition is steep. Scoring exactly 60 may get you into a campus like NMIMS Shirpur or Dhule. For NMIMS Mumbai BBA, four years of observed trends put the closing score well above 80.

If your score is between 60 and 75, explore all eight NMIMS campuses during choice filling. The Navi Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad campuses award the same NMIMS degree at considerably lower closing scores — and for many UG programmes, their placement outcomes are also strong.

NPAT 2026 Merit List and Seat Allotment

NMIMS releases merit lists in rounds after the Phase 2 result. Each round offers seats to candidates based on their NPAT 2026 total score and the campus-programme preferences they filled during counselling. If a top-ranked candidate declines a seat, that vacancy goes to the next candidate in the following round.

Programme-wise seat distribution across all NMIMS campuses (approximate):

How NMIMS decides merit: Candidates are ranked by total NPAT score from highest to lowest. If two candidates tie on total marks, NMIMS compares section-wise performance to break the tie. Your final seat depends on this rank combined with the campus-programme preferences you submitted during choice filling.

If you are waitlisted: Your position can improve in Round 2 (expected last week of July 2026) or Round 3 (August 2026) if admitted candidates vacate their seats. NMIMS does not publish waitlist position numbers — keep checking npat.nmims.edu and act immediately once a round is announced, as the acceptance window typically lasts just two to three days.

What to Do After NPAT Result 2026

Your next steps depend on the admission status shown on your dashboard. Here is what to do in each scenario:

If you received a seat offer:

1. Log in to npat.nmims.edu and accept the seat within the deadline in your allotment letter — missing this forfeits the seat
2. Pay the first instalment of the admission fee online through the portal
3. Upload the required documents in the format and size NMIMS specifies on the portal
4. Attend in-person document verification as per the NMIMS schedule, with originals and attested copies

If you are waitlisted:

1. Keep checking npat.nmims.edu — Round 2 merit list (expected last week of July 2026) frequently converts waitlisted candidates
2. Do not assume you will not get a seat; vacancies open when higher-ranked candidates choose a different institution
3. Keep a backup plan ready in case Round 2 and Round 3 do not convert your waitlist, so you can act quickly on alternatives

Documents required for NMIMS admission:

NMIMS admission closes once all seats across all campuses and rounds are filled. Based on past cycles, this typically happens in August 2026 after the third merit list. Once you pay the admission fee, your seat is confirmed — but it can be forfeited if you miss any subsequent payment deadline, so act as soon as your allotment is published.
