The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to release the JIPMAT 2026 provisional answer key shortly at the official portal @exams.nta.nic.in/jipmat following the successful conduct of the examination on June 7, 2026 from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM in Computer-Based Test mode. As of June 11, 2026, the answer key has not been activated yet. Based on NTA’s previous JIPMAT timelines, the provisional answer key is expected within 7 to 10 days of the exam date, making the June 11 to June 17 window most likely. The response sheet is also expected alongside the answer key.
JIPMAT is the national-level entrance exam for admission to the 5-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) at IIM Bodh Gaya and IIM Jammu — a prestigious route for Class 12 passouts to enter IIM-quality management education directly.
