Several media reports had earlier suggested that the results might be announced earlier this week. However, KEA has not yet released any official notification confirming the date and time of the declaration.

The unexpected delay has resulted in growing anticipation among MBA, MCA, and M.Tech aspirants who are waiting to begin the next phase of the admission process.

MBA and M.Tech Examination Dates

The Karnataka PGCET examinations for different postgraduate programmes were conducted on separate dates.

Programme Examination Date

MBA

June 14, 2026

MCA

June 14, 2026

M.Tech

May 23, 2026

With more than two months having passed since the MBA and MCA examinations, students are becoming increasingly concerned about the delay in the publication of the results.

Is Karnataka PGCET 2026 Cancelled? Here's the Truth

Rumours regarding the cancellation of the Karnataka PGCET 2026 examination have recently circulated on social media platforms.

A discussion initiated by a Reddit user claimed that the examination had been cancelled, citing what was described as "insider information." However, KEA has not issued any official notification confirming the cancellation of Karnataka PGCET 2026.

At present, there is no official evidence suggesting that the examination has been cancelled.

The rumours appear to have gained momentum primarily because of the unexpected delay in the release of the results.

Candidates are strongly advised to rely only on information published through official KEA channels and avoid believing unverified social media posts.

Students Seek Official Clarification From KEA

The delay in announcing the results has prompted several students to seek greater transparency from the examination authority.

According to reports, some candidates are planning to gather outside the KEA office on August 17, 2026.

Interestingly, the primary demand is not the immediate declaration of the results. Instead, students are requesting an official notification specifying the expected date of the result announcement.

Historically, Karnataka PGCET results have generally been declared within a shorter time frame, leading many candidates to expect the results in July.
