The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) is expected to declare KCET 2026 results after June 1, 2026, at cetonline.karnataka.gov.in, though a June 1 re-exam in Hiriyur due to malpractice may cause a minor delay.

KCET 2026 Result Postponed

The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) is expected to announce KCET 2026 results after June 1, 2026. Higher Education Minister Dr. M.C. Sudhakar confirmed the revised timeline, though results will be released only after the rescheduled agriculture and veterinary practical exam at Hiriyur Centre is completed on June 1, 2026.

A scheduled re-examination on May 24 in Hiriyur following a malpractice incident will cause a one to two-day delay. KEA officials are processing data rapidly post-re-examination to ensure students access scores without prolonged waiting.

Candidates must have their KCET 2026 admit card, Aadhaar card, and 10th/12th marks cards ready. Keep xerox copies of relevant certificates and caste certificates if applicable for counselling verification.

KCET 2026 Counselling Process

After result declaration, qualified candidates must register for counselling using their CET application number. The process includes document verification, option entry, mock allotment, and multiple rounds of seat allocation.

Aspirants aiming for agricultural science courses must note that Agricultural University exam scores will determine their admissions. KEA is coordinating with Agricultural University for seamless data integration.

What’s Next for Students

Students should prepare their preference list using previous year trends and cutoff data. Research colleges, courses, and branches thoroughly to make informed choices during option entry.

The mock round helps candidates understand the allotment process without affecting final results. Students can modify preferences between mock allotment and round one to optimize their chances.

Once results are declared, counselling will commence in the second week of June with registration and document verification. Multiple rounds of seat allotment will follow, leading to final seat confirmation and college reporting.
