What is confirmed and what is only reported

Confirmed by NPTEL
NPTEL’s FAQ says results and the e-certificate come about 2–3 weeks after an online objective exam and about 5–6 weeks after a pen-and-paper exam. The e-certificate is downloaded from nptel.ac.in/noc. NPTEL’s site also asks learners to log in, check their scores and certificates, and report any problem from the candidate login.
Reported by education sites
Results started on 29 September, with more batches on 16 October and 26–28 October, published course by course. These sites do not all agree on exact days, and we could not find a page on NPTEL’s own site that lists release dates.
💡 Results are published per course, and each course has its own exam day and format. That is why one learner sees a result while a friend in a different course does not. Treat any exact “result out on [date]” claim as unconfirmed unless you can see it on nptel.ac.in.

How to check your result

  • Go to nptel.ac.in and open “Results for Jul–Dec 2026 Exams”.
  • Find your course and open its result sheet link.
  • Enter your roll number (it is on your hall ticket) and proceed. The result PDF opens, and you can download it.
  • Check your name, marks and qualifying status carefully.
  • Download the e-certificate from nptel.ac.in/noc. NPTEL’s FAQ says it comes with the result, but some sites say it appears about three days later — so if it is missing, check again after a few days.

Your course isn’t listed yet?

Keep checking the portal — courses are being added in batches. NPTEL’s normal window still applies: about 2–3 weeks after the exam for online objective exams, and about 5–6 weeks for pen-and-paper exams. If your course is well past its window, contact NPTEL support at support@nptel.iitm.ac.in or (044) 2257 5905, both listed on NPTEL’s own site.

Exam days reported for this cycle: 19–20 September, 16–18 October and 23–25 October. Always confirm your own date and centre on your hall ticket.

Found a mistake in your score?

Report it from your candidate login as soon as you can. We did not see a deadline published on the pages we checked, but last cycle the window was short (details below), so don’t wait.

What last cycle looked like

The April 2026 cycle is a useful guide to how quickly results and the correction window move:
