Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification
- Candidates must possess a recognised BAMS, BUMS, BSMS, BHMS or Graded BHMS degree, as applicable to the discipline selected in the application form.
- The qualifying degree should be awarded by a recognised university or institution and meet the applicable statutory requirements.
- Applicants are generally required to have completed, or be due to complete, the prescribed rotatory internship by the cut-off date stated in the AIAPGET 2026 information bulletin.
- Registration with the relevant state or national AYUSH regulatory authority may be required during admission and counselling.
- Candidates must satisfy all course-specific conditions before participating in the counselling process.
Age Limit
- No separate upper age limit is generally prescribed for appearing in AIAPGET.
- Candidates must nevertheless meet the eligibility rules of the university, institution, counselling authority or quota under which admission is sought.
- Any age-related condition published in the AIAPGET 2026 information bulletin will take precedence.
Fees
- The examination fee varies by category and is payable through the online modes specified by NTA.
- Candidates raising an objection may have to pay a non-refundable processing fee for each question challenged, as stated in the answer key notice.
- The applicable fee amount and payment deadline should be checked on the candidate login page before submission.
- A challenge will be treated as complete only after successful online payment, where required.
Selection Process
- Computer-Based Entrance Test: Candidates are assessed through AIAPGET 2026 in the discipline selected during registration.
- Answer Key Review and Result: NTA examines valid objections with the help of subject experts, prepares the final answer key and declares scores and ranks.
- Counselling and Admission: Qualified candidates participate in the applicable central, state or institutional counselling process, subject to rank, category, preferences and seat availability.
The provisional answer key does not constitute the final result. If an objection is accepted, the relevant answer may be revised for all candidates, and the result will be prepared using the final key.
How to Apply
The application process for the examination is separate from the current answer key activity. Candidates who have already taken AIAPGET 2026 can follow these steps to download the provisional key and submit a challenge:
- Visit the official NTA examination website at exams.nta.nic.in.
- Open the AIAPGET section and select the link for the AIAPGET 2026 provisional answer key or answer key challenge.
- Log in using the application number and the requested password, date of birth or security credentials.
- Download the answer key, question paper and recorded response sheet, if made available.
- Compare the response sheet with the provisional answers and note the question IDs requiring review.
- Select the relevant question, choose the proposed answer and upload clear supporting documents from authoritative academic sources.
- Pay the prescribed objection processing fee online, where applicable, and submit the challenge before the deadline.
- Download the acknowledgement or payment receipt and retain a copy for future reference.
Candidates should avoid sending objections by email or post unless the official notice specifically permits such a method. They must also rely on question IDs displayed in the portal rather than only the question sequence shown in their paper.
