The All India Institute of Medical Sciences has announced the 2026 result for the Institute of National Importance Combined Entrance Test (INI-CET). NDTV reported the result information on November 7, stating that 34,236 candidates qualified.
The examination took place on November 1. AIIMS has released a PDF listing the roll numbers of qualified candidates. Applicants can visit the official examination website and search that document for their own roll number.
The report says candidates seeking an individual scorecard can access the portal with their registration ID and password. For results and later notices, applicants should check the official AIIMS website, particularly when other sites provide conflicting information.
Passing the entrance test alone does not secure a place in any specific institute or course. Qualified candidates must take part in the separate counselling process, following the official schedule, completing registration, and submitting their preferred institutes and programmes.
Seat allotment may hinge on rank, category, course choices, seat availability, and the rules stated in the official counselling notice. Applicants should read the instructions closely and meet every deadline. Missing registration or choice-filling could limit their options, even after they qualify.
INI-CET determines admission to postgraduate medical programmes at participating Institutes of National Importance. Since course and institution options can change, candidates should consult the latest seat matrix once it is released. It shows the specialties available, the institutions offering them, and the number of seats in each category.
Applicants should keep their result documents and scorecards, along with the registration details. These records may be required during counselling or the admission process. If any information is incorrect, the official notice will state how candidates can request clarification or a correction.
Candidates who were not successful can still use the result when preparing for the next attempt. A careful review may show which subjects require more work and help shape a study plan for the next examination cycle. Official exam materials and reliable academic advice should guide that process, rather than informal interpretations of the results.
The release starts the next step for qualified candidates. Seat distribution will depend on counselling, the choices candidates submit, and the allocation process. Candidates should keep checking AIIMS announcements and confirm every date and requirement with the examination authority.
The qualified-candidate figure covers the entire country. It says nothing about the number of available seats or how many applicants will eventually be admitted. For each candidate, the decisive details are their rank, eligibility, stated preferences, and the seat matrix released for counselling.
