IIT Kharagpur Result 2026 – Check JoSAA, JEE Advanced & Semester Results

Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT KGP) results for the 2026-27 academic session, including admission and internal semester examinations, are released through various official portals. As of 13 July 2026, the JoSAA Round 4 seat allotment for 2026 admissions was announced on 11 July 2026 and is available on the official JoSAA portal. Admission to undergraduate programmes is based on the JEE (Advanced) entrance examination, with counselling managed by the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA).

This page provides comprehensive details on checking admission results via JEE (Advanced) and JoSAA, as well as information on how current students can access their internal semester results, including backlog/arrear results and the process for grade re-evaluation. While admission results are public, semester results are available only on the institute’s internal student ERP system.

To check your seat allotment status, you will need to log in to the JoSAA portal using your JEE (Advanced) Roll Number, your chosen Password, and the Security PIN displayed on the screen. For JEE (Advanced) results, a separate portal is used, which typically requires the roll number, date of birth, and phone number.

How to Check Your IIT KGP Allotment Result on the JoSAA Portal

Once a JoSAA counselling round result is declared, candidates can check their allotment status by following these precise steps. The portal is the single point of access for all IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs partaking in the counselling.

Step-by-Step Guide for JoSAA Portal

2. On the homepage, locate and click on the link that reads “View Seat Allotment Result Round [X] of JoSAA Counselling 2026”.
3. You will be redirected to the candidate login page, hosted on admissions.nic.in.
4. Carefully enter your JEE (Advanced) 2026 Roll Number in the designated field.

6. Type the security pin (captcha) as shown in the image. It is case-sensitive.
7. Click the “Login” button.
8. Your dashboard will open, displaying the seat allotment result. It will clearly state if a seat has been allotted at IIT Kharagpur (or any other institute as per your choices) or not.
9. If a seat is allotted, you must download the provisional seat allotment letter and the e-challan for seat acceptance fee payment.

During peak hours on result day, the JoSAA portal may experience heavy traffic. Students are advised to be patient and try logging in after a short interval if the site is slow or unresponsive.

Semester Results: Backlog, Revaluation, and Grade Sheets

For students already enrolled at IIT Kharagpur, academic results for mid-semester and end-semester examinations are managed internally. These results are not published on the main institute website but are accessible through a secure student portal or ERP system using unique login credentials.

Understanding Backlog and Supplementary Examinations

At IITs, failing a course (receiving an ‘F’ grade) results in a backlog or arrear. Students with backlogs must clear them to earn the required credits for their degree. The institute’s academic regulations outline the specific procedures, which typically involve:

• Re-examination: Appearing for a supplementary or backlog examination for the specific course.
• Re-registration: Re-registering for the entire course in a subsequent semester and fulfilling all its academic requirements again.

The results for these supplementary attempts are also declared on the internal student portal. Clearing all backlogs is mandatory for graduation.

The Process for Re-evaluation and Scrutiny

While the JEE (Advanced) exam has a strict no-re-evaluation policy, IIT Kharagpur, like other premier institutes, has a formal process for students to request a review of their semester exam answer scripts. This is typically a ‘scrutiny’ process rather than a full re-evaluation. The process generally involves:

1. Application: Students must apply for scrutiny through the academic ERP portal within a specified window after the results are declared.
2. Fee Payment: A nominal, non-refundable fee is usually charged per course/paper to be scrutinized.
3. Scrutiny Scope: The review primarily checks for totaling errors in marks, whether all questions have been evaluated, and ensures that marks have been transferred correctly to the grade sheet. It does not involve re-assessing the answers for correctness.
4. Result Declaration: If any changes occur after scrutiny, a revised grade card is issued. The result of the scrutiny is communicated through the student portal.

Accessing Your Official Grade Card

At the end of each semester, the institute issues an official Grade Card to every student. This document is a comprehensive record of academic performance for the semester and includes:

• Course codes and names of subjects studied.
• Letter grades obtained in each course.
• Semester Performance Index (SPI).
• Cumulative Performance Index (CPI).

Students can typically view and download their digital grade cards from the student ERP portal. This is an essential document for internships, placements, and applications for higher studies.

Navigating Post-Allotment Procedures at IIT Kharagpur

Securing a seat is only one part of the process. After the result is displayed on the JoSAA portal, candidates allotted a seat at IIT Kharagpur must complete a series of mandatory steps to confirm their admission. Failure to complete any step within the stipulated deadline will lead to the cancellation of the allotted seat.

1. Accepting the Allotted Seat

Once a seat is allotted, candidates have three options to choose from on the JoSAA portal:

• Freeze: This option implies that the candidate is satisfied with the allotted seat and does not wish to participate in further rounds of counselling. They are accepting the offered seat at IIT Kharagpur.
• Float: This option is for candidates who accept the allotted seat but also wish to be considered for a higher-preference course/institute in subsequent rounds. If a higher preference is allotted later, the previous seat is automatically forfeited.
• Slide: This option is for candidates who accept the allotted seat at IIT Kharagpur but wish to be considered for a higher-preference course *within the same institute* (IIT Kharagpur) in subsequent rounds.

2. Payment of Seat Acceptance Fee

Candidates must pay the seat acceptance fee online through Net Banking, Debit Card, Credit Card, or e-challan. This fee is mandatory for all candidates who are allotted a seat for the first time in any round. The fee amount is adjusted against the first-semester fees at the institute.

3. Document Upload and Verification

After paying the fee, candidates must upload scanned copies of their original documents for online verification. The list typically includes:

JEE (Advanced) 2026 Result: The Gateway to IIT KGP

The foundation of the IIT Kharagpur admission result is the scorecard of the JEE (Advanced) examination. This scorecard contains critical information that is used throughout the counselling process. Candidates should download and securely save a copy of their scorecard as soon as it is released.

Key Details on the JEE (Advanced) Scorecard

• Candidate’s Name, Roll Number, and Registration Number
• Photograph and Signature
• Marks Obtained: Subject-wise marks in Paper 1 and Paper 2 (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) and the aggregate total marks.
• Qualifying Status: A clear mention of whether the candidate has qualified in the exam or not.
• Ranks Awarded: The scorecard will list the Common Rank List (CRL) rank and the Category Rank (if applicable, e.g., OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS). All seat allotments are based on these ranks.

It is important to note that IITs do not entertain requests for re-evaluation or re-checking of the OMR answer sheets for the JEE (Advanced) examination. The declared result is final.

The IIT KGP Grading System and Academic Evaluation

Once admitted, students at IIT Kharagpur are evaluated using a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) system. Performance in each course is graded with letters, each corresponding to a numerical grade point. The final score is a weighted average of these points.

• Semester Performance Index (SPI): This is the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all courses taken in a particular semester. It is calculated at the end of each semester.
• Cumulative Performance Index (CPI): This is the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all courses taken since the student’s admission to the institute. It is the overall academic score, often referred to as CGPA.

Key Questions on IIT Kharagpur Admission & Semester Results

What is the difference between the JEE (Advanced) result and the JoSAA result?

The JEE (Advanced) result is your scorecard, which provides your All India Rank based on your performance in the entrance exam. The JoSAA result is the seat allotment status, which tells you if you have been allocated a specific seat in a specific course at IIT Kharagpur (or another institute) based on your rank and the choices you filled.

I have qualified JEE (Advanced) but was not allotted a seat at IIT Kharagpur in Round 4. What should I do?

If you were not allotted a seat, you must wait for the subsequent rounds of JoSAA counselling. Your eligibility for a seat depends on your rank and the availability of seats after higher-ranked candidates make their choices. Keep checking the JoSAA portal for the results of Round 5 and subsequent rounds.

Where can I find my internal semester results for IIT Kharagpur?

Internal semester exam results (for students already studying at IIT Kharagpur) are not published on a public website. They are made available to students through the institute’s internal ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) portal or student academic portal, for which each student has a unique login.

What happens if I get a backlog (F grade) in a semester?

If you receive an ‘F’ grade, you will have a backlog in that course. You must clear this backlog as per the institute’s academic rules, which usually involves either appearing for a supplementary exam or re-registering for the course in a future semester. Clearing all backlogs is mandatory for degree completion.

Can I apply for re-evaluation of my semester exam paper at IIT KGP?

Yes, students can typically apply for scrutiny or re-evaluation of their answer scripts for internal semester exams. This process is initiated through the student ERP portal for a nominal fee and is limited to checking for totaling errors or unevaluated answers, not re-grading the entire paper.

What is the difference between SPI and CPI?

SPI (Semester Performance Index) is your grade point average for a single semester. CPI (Cumulative Performance Index) is your overall grade point average calculated from all the courses you have taken since you joined the institute. CPI is the primary metric of your overall academic standing.

Is there a re-evaluation process for JEE (Advanced) scores?

No, the organizing IIT for JEE (Advanced) does not provide a process for the re-evaluation or re-checking of answer sheets. The scores and ranks published in the official result are considered final and binding.

My name is spelled incorrectly on the IIT KGP allotment letter. How can I fix this?

The name on the allotment letter is taken from your JEE (Advanced) registration. If there is a discrepancy, you should immediately contact the JoSAA authorities. Minor corrections are typically handled during the physical document verification process at the time of reporting to the institute, provided you have valid supporting documents like your Class X/XII certificates with the correct spelling.
