The result will be released for students who participated in the NID B.Des Mains examinations, including the Studio Sensitivity Test and the In-Person Sensitivity Test conducted on April 19 and April 26, 2026. According to current expectations, the final result is likely to be declared during the first week of May 2026.
Last year, the NID B.Des final result was announced on May 16. However, this year the institute is expected to publish the results slightly earlier, increasing anticipation among design aspirants across the country.
Candidates will need to log in using their registered email ID and date of birth to access the NID DAT B.Des 2026 scorecard. The institute has clarified that no physical copy of the result or scorecard will be sent by post.
