The Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (IITG) will be publishing the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) 2026 on its official website. Once released, candidates can find the direct link to download their scorecard at gate2026.iitg.ac.in. They must enter their GATE enrollment number and password to access their GATE 2026 Result. The scorecard will contain the details like total marks obtained by candidates, gate marks, and gate score. However, it must be noted that normalisation will be implemented since the GATE 2026 Examination was conducted in multiple shifts.
The GATE 2026 Examination, conducted by IIT Guwahati, was held on February 7, 8, 14 & 15, 2026. Along with the GATE 2026 Result, the qualifying cutoff will also be released. It must be noted that the GATE Result 2026 is valid for three years; that means the scores can be used in 2027 and 2028 as well. Following the announcement of the GATE 2026 Result, candidates who meet the cutoff criteria will be invited to participate in the counselling process. The online application link for GOAPS 2026 will be activated on the official website.
