2022	~April 2022	~May 2022	~May–June 2022	~June 2022

The exam schedule has shifted in recent years. In 2023, the exam was in mid-April and interviews were in May. From 2025 onward, the exam moved to late April or early May, pushing interviews to June.

The time from exam to final result has stayed at 6–8 weeks. Candidates can expect results by mid-May and a final admission outcome by late June.

M.Tech Seat Intake at IIIT Hyderabad

M.Tech seat intake at IIIT Hyderabad has been stable at around 180 seats across four specialisations. The distribution is given below.

M.Tech Specialisation	Approximate Intake
Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)	~90 seats
Computer Science and Information Security (CSIS)	~30 seats
Computer Aided Structural Engineering (CASE)	~30 seats

Total M.Tech Seats	~180 seats

MS by Research and PhD seats are not publicly fixed. They vary each year based on faculty research capacity and available funding.

CSE typically has the highest research intake at IIITH, followed by ECE. BioInformatics and Civil Engineering research programmes have smaller annual cohorts.

How to Check IIITH PGEE Result 2026

The IIITH PGEE 2026 result is only accessible through the candidate login on the official admissions portal. There is no public scorecard link or open rank list.

1. Go to pgadmissions.iiit.ac.in.
2. Click on the candidate login button and enter the Application ID and Password created during registration.
3. Navigate to the result or admissions status section of the dashboard.
4. The scorecard will show Paper I score, Paper II score, total score, and shortlisting or seat-allocation status.
5. Download and save the scorecard as a PDF for admission formalities and document verification.

If the password is forgotten, use the "Forgot Password" option on the login page. A reset link goes to the registered email address — check spam or junk mail if it does not arrive within a few minutes.

There is no SMS, phone, or IVR method to check results. The portal login is the only channel. Once the final post-interview admission list is published (expected late June 2026), log in again to see the final status.

Portal Issues and Multiple Programme Results

Ques. What should I do if the IIITH PGEE 2026 portal is slow or not loading?

Ans. The portal tends to slow down immediately after any new result or shortlist goes live due to high traffic. Try again after a few hours, or access it early morning or late at night. Clearing the browser cache and trying a different browser or incognito mode helps in most cases.

Ques. I applied for multiple IIITH programmes. Do I get a separate result for each?

Ans. Yes. IIIT Hyderabad allows applications for multiple programmes (for example, M.Tech CSE and MS by Research CSE). The portal dashboard shows the status for each programme separately. Check each programme's tab or section after logging in.

IIITH PGEE 2026 Scorecard — What It Contains

The IIITH PGEE scorecard is the official document confirming written CBT performance. For M.Tech candidates, it is effectively the final result — the score determines merit rank and seat allocation.

For MS by Research and PhD candidates, the scorecard tells whether the candidate has been shortlisted for the on-campus interview. It does not confirm admission by itself. The final admission outcome is published separately after interviews conclude.

The IIITH PGEE 2026 scorecard typically includes:

• Candidate name and application number
• Programme applied for (M.Tech / MS by Research / PhD) and discipline (CSE / ECE / Civil Engineering / BioInformatics)
• Paper I score — Basic Aptitude, Logical Reasoning, and Mathematics
• Paper II score — Subject-specific paper for the chosen discipline
• Total score out of the exam's maximum marks
• Admission or shortlisting status: seat allocated (M.Tech) or shortlisted/not shortlisted for interview (Research)

Download both a digital copy and a printout as soon as the scorecard is available. Portal download links may not remain active indefinitely.

If any error is found in the name, score, or other details, report it immediately to the IIITH admissions office at pgadmissions@iiit.ac.in.

IIITH PGEE 2026 Qualifying Marks and Cutoff

IIIT Hyderabad does not publish official PGEE qualifying marks or cutoff scores for any programme. The effective threshold changes every year based on the applicant pool and available seats. No announced minimum score guarantees a seat or an interview call.

M.Tech Programmes

Admission is based entirely on the written PGEE score. There is a single open merit list, and seat allocation happens across rounds in order of score. The effective cutoff is the score of the last candidate admitted after all rounds close, a figure IIIT-H does not publish.

Based on unofficial candidate-reported data from the 2024 cycle, a score around 47 out of 90 was sufficient for M.Tech CSE. CSIS was close behind, while PDM and CASE had lower thresholds reflecting smaller applicant pools.

MS by Research and PhD Programmes

The written score is used only to shortlist candidates for the interview. No published cutoff exists. The shortlisting threshold is set internally by each research group and changes each year.

After the interview, the committee's decision is final, and the PGEE score plays no further role. PhD candidates can also qualify for the shortlist through a GATE score (direct route) or a valid NET score, without sitting the PGEE.

Key details of the exam's scoring structure:

• Two papers of 90 minutes each — Paper I (Aptitude, Logical Reasoning, Mathematics) and Paper II (Subject-specific).
• Total marks: approximately 90 across both papers (exact split varies by year).
• Negative marking: 0.25 marks deducted per wrong answer. Unattempted questions carry no penalty.

Reservation Policy

For M.Tech, IIIT Hyderabad uses a single open merit list — General, OBC, SC, ST, and EWS candidates compete under the same threshold. IIITH is an autonomous institution and its reservation policy differs from central universities.

For research programmes, shortlisting is determined by internal group-level criteria without published category-specific thresholds. For the current year's policy, check the official admissions brochure or write to pgadmissions@iiit.ac.in.

IIITH PGEE 2026 Interview — Shortlisting and Final Selection

The on-campus interview is the decisive final step for MS by Research and PhD admission. The written PGEE score determines only whether a candidate receives an interview call. The interview committee alone decides who gets admitted, based entirely on performance during the campus visit.

For 2026, both interview rounds have concluded at the IIIT Hyderabad campus in Gachibowli, Hyderabad:

• MS by Research interviews: June 10–11, 2026 (completed)
• PhD interviews: June 12–13, 2026 (completed)

The interview assesses several dimensions:

• Core subject knowledge in the chosen discipline (CSE, ECE, Civil Engineering, or BioInformatics)
• Research aptitude — the ability to identify an interesting problem and articulate an approach to it
• Analytical thinking and problem-solving under discussion with the faculty panel
• Prior research exposure: publications, relevant projects, or internships in a research lab — helpful, but not mandatory

There is no fixed interview score or published passing threshold. The committee makes a holistic judgement. Some MS by Research and PhD seats are accessible to GATE-qualified candidates who clear the same interview — so the interview room includes both PGEE shortlistees and GATE-route candidates competing for the same seats.

With the June 10–13 interviews now done, IIIT Hyderabad is preparing the post-interview final admission list. Once it is published on the official portal (expected late June 2026), it will confirm who has been offered admission for the Monsoon 2026 semester.

Interview Format

The PGEE 2026 interviews were held in-person on-campus at IIIT Hyderabad, Gachibowli. MS by Research interviews ran on June 10–11 and PhD interviews on June 12–13, 2026. Both rounds have now concluded.

Appeal Process

No. IIIT Hyderabad's policy states that the interview committee's decision is final. There is no appeal or reconsideration process for research programme admissions. If a candidate was not offered a seat in this cycle, they can re-apply when PGEE 2027 applications open — typically around February.

What After IIITH PGEE Result 2026?

Next steps depend on which programme a candidate applied for and what the portal shows after the final admission list is published.

If You Received an M.Tech Seat

• An admission offer will appear in the portal dashboard.
• Accept the offer and pay the admission fee within the deadline in the offer letter.
• Upload the required documents — degree certificate, all semester mark sheets, valid photo ID, and category certificate if applicable.
• Attend in-person document verification and registration at IIIT Hyderabad before the Monsoon 2026 semester begins (expected late July or early August 2026).
