The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) is expected to declare the KCET 2026 result today, June 5, 2026, on its official portal @cetonline.karnataka.gov.in, according to a live updates page being actively maintained by major education news platforms as of this morning. The result covers 3,30,479 candidates who appeared for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test conducted on April 22, 23, and 24, 2026, of whom 1,86,099 are female and 1,44,380 are male students. The exam was held across 745 centres in Karnataka.
The result declaration was delayed beyond the originally expected May 2026 date due to the rescheduled Agriculture Practical Examination at Hiriyur, which was completed on June 1, 2026. KEA has now completed all evaluation and processing steps and the result is imminent.
How KCET 2026 Rank Is Calculated
