The results for the Even Semester 2026 examinations for various UG and PG programmes are expected to be released soon on the official student portal.

This page covers all academic results published by IIT Madras, such as semester grade cards, which are available on the dedicated viewgrades portal. It also includes updates on admission and entrance results for its various programmes (M.Tech, M.S., Ph.D., BS), which are announced on specialised portals like research.iitm.ac.in and mtechadm.iitm.ac.in.

To check semester results, students need to log in to the respective portals using their LDAP credentials (username and password). Admission results are typically published as PDF lists or through dedicated admission portals which may require an application number and date of birth.

IIT Madras Results 2026: An Overview of Admission and Academic Portals

IIT Madras, an Institute of Eminence, manages its examination and admission results through a decentralized system of dedicated online portals. Unlike many universities with a single examination controller website, IITM provides specific platforms for different academic and administrative functions. Understanding which portal to use is the first step for students to access their results promptly.

How to Access Your IIT Madras Semester Grade Card (viewgrades Portal)

For all undergraduate (B.Tech, BS) and postgraduate (M.Tech, M.S., Ph.D.) students, the end-semester examination results are published online on the viewgrades portal. This portal is specifically for viewing the grades of the most recently concluded semester. Follow these steps to access your result:

1. Visit the official IITM grades portal: https://www.iitm.ac.in/viewgrades.
2. The page will prompt you for your login credentials.
3. Enter your unique LDAP Username (e.g., ee19b001) and the corresponding Password.
4. Complete the security captcha if prompted.
5. Click on the ‘Login’ or ‘Submit’ button.
6. Upon successful login, your grade card for the latest semester will be displayed on the screen.
7. You can view subject-wise grades, Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA), and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
8. It is advisable to take a screenshot or download a local copy of the page for your records, though the official grade card is issued separately.

Note: On result declaration day, the portal may experience high traffic. If you face issues logging in, please try again after some time. The results are not removed from the portal immediately.

IIT Madras Revaluation, Arrear, and Supplementary Results

Grade Scrutiny and Re-evaluation Process

IIT Madras provides a formal process for students who wish to have their answer scripts scrutinized for potential errors in grading. This process is intended to correct clerical mistakes, such as errors in totalling marks or overlooking an evaluated question, rather than a complete re-assessment of the answers.

• Application: Students must typically apply for grade scrutiny within a short window after the semester results are declared. The notification is usually sent out by the Academic Section or the respective department.
• Procedure: The request is submitted to the course instructor or the Head of the Department. Students should follow the specific instructions provided in the official circular.
• Outcome: If any discrepancy is found, the grade is corrected and updated in the student’s official record and on the `viewgrades` portal. The outcome of the scrutiny is final.
• Fees: Any applicable fee for the scrutiny process will be mentioned in the official notification from the academic office.

While evidence shows IIT Madras assisting external bodies like CBSE with re-evaluation portal glitches, students should note that the internal process at IITM is distinct and managed by the institute’s academic departments.

Arrear and Backlog Examination Results

Students who do not pass a course and receive a ‘U’ grade (Unsatisfactory) are required to clear it by taking an arrear or supplementary examination.

• Registration: Students must register for the arrear exam as per the schedule announced by the academic office.
• Result Declaration: After the supplementary exams are conducted and evaluated, the results are published on the same `viewgrades` portal (https://www.iitm.ac.in/viewgrades).
• Impact on Grade Card: The new grade obtained in the arrear exam will replace the ‘U’ grade, and the student’s SGPA and CGPA will be recalculated. A “No Backlog Certificate” can be obtained from the SSP portal once all courses are cleared.

Navigating Admission & Entrance Results (M.Tech, M.S., Ph.D., BS)

IIT Madras conducts and declares results for various admission processes on separate, specialized portals. These are distinct from the academic semester results portal.

M.Tech / M.A. Admission Results

Admissions to M.Tech and select M.A. programmes are primarily based on GATE scores. The selection lists and offer letters are published on the M.Tech Admissions Portal at mtechadm.iitm.ac.in. Candidates follow the counselling process through the central COAP (Common Offer Acceptance Portal) but can find IITM-specific lists and instructions on the institute’s portal. Results are typically released in rounds as PDF documents listing the application numbers of offered candidates.

M.S. / Ph.D. Research Admissions

For research programmes (Master of Science by Research and Doctor of Philosophy), the entire application and result process is managed through the Research Admission Portal at research.iitm.ac.in. Shortlisted candidates for tests/interviews and the final list of selected scholars are published here. Applicants must log in with their credentials to check their individual status.

B.Tech Admissions (JoSAA Counselling)

IIT Madras does not declare B.Tech admission results directly. Admissions are handled through the centralised counselling conducted by the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA), based on JEE (Advanced) ranks. Students must check the official JoSAA website for seat allotment results. The IITM website provides information on opening and closing ranks from previous years for reference.

BS in Data Science & Other Programmes

IITM offers unique non-campus programmes like the BS in Data Science and Electronic Systems. Admission to these involves a qualifier process. The results of the qualifier exam and the list of eligible students are published on the dedicated portal for these programmes, managed by the Centre for Outreach and Digital Education (CODE) at study.iitm.ac.in/ds/admissions.html.

Understanding IIT Madras Academic Evaluation: Grade Cards and Certificates

The academic performance of a student at IIT Madras is evaluated using a credit-based grading system. The final result for each semester is presented in a Cumulative Grade Card.

Details on Your Cumulative Grade Card

Your official grade card is a comprehensive document that contains the following critical information:

• Student’s Full Name
• Roll Number / Registration Number
• Programme of Study (e.g., B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering)
• Semester / Academic Year
• List of all registered courses with their course codes and credits
• Letter Grade obtained in each course
• Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA)
• Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)
• Date of Result Declaration

IITM’s Grading System

IIT Madras uses a 10-point relative grading scale. The letter grades and their corresponding grade points are as follows:

The SGPA is calculated based on the grades obtained in a single semester, while the CGPA is the cumulative average of all semesters completed so far.

Requesting Transcripts and Other Academic Documents via SSP

For official documents required for higher education applications, internships, or employment, students and alumni must use the Student/Staff Services Portal (SSP). This is a separate portal from `viewgrades`.

The SSP portal, accessible at ssp.iitm.ac.in, allows users to request and download digitally signed official documents. Services available include:

• Official Transcripts: A consolidated record of all courses and grades.
• Cumulative Grade Card: The official, printable version of the grade sheet.
• Rank Certificate: A certificate indicating the student’s rank within their department/batch.
• No Backlog Certificate: A document certifying that the student has no pending courses to clear.
• Provisional and Final Degree Certificates.

Users need to log in with their institute credentials to access these services. There may be a nominal fee for certain documents.

Common Questions from the IITM Student Community

Where can I check my B.Tech/M.Tech semester results?

All current semester results and grades are published on the official IIT Madras grades portal: https://www.iitm.ac.in/viewgrades. You will need your LDAP username and password to log in and view your grade card.

My semester result for the Even 2026 session is not yet declared. When can I expect it?

Semester results are typically declared a few weeks after the conclusion of the final examinations. The exact date is announced through official institute channels. Based on past trends, the Even Semester 2026 results are expected by August 2026.

Is the M.Tech admission offer list available on the same portal as semester results?

No, they are on separate portals. M.Tech admission results, including offer lists based on GATE scores, are published on the IITM M.Tech Admission Portal at mtechadm.iitm.ac.in. Semester results are on the ‘viewgrades’ portal.

How can I get an official transcript for my higher education application abroad?

Official transcripts and other academic documents must be requested through the Student/Staff Services Portal (SSP) at https://ssp.iitm.ac.in/. You can log in and apply for a digitally signed official transcript there.

I believe there is an error in my grade. What is the procedure for a re-check?

IITM has an internal process for grade scrutiny. Students should first contact the concerned course instructor for clarification. If a formal appeal is needed, you must follow the procedure laid out by the Academic Section, the details of which are usually shared with students post-result declaration.

What is the difference between the ‘viewgrades’ portal and the ‘SSP’ portal?

The ‘viewgrades’ portal is for quick, informal viewing of your most recent semester’s grades. The ‘SSP’ (Student Services Portal) is the official platform for requesting and downloading formal academic documents like consolidated transcripts, rank certificates, and provisional degrees required for official purposes.

What should I do if I have a backlog/arrear in a subject?

If you have a backlog (a ‘U’ grade), you must register for the supplementary/arrear examination for that course. Keep an eye on notifications from the Academic Section regarding the registration process and examination schedule. Once you pass the exam, your updated grade will reflect on your grade card.

Can I get a physical copy of my grade card?

The `viewgrades` portal provides an immediate, digital view of your semester grades. For an official, signed document (either a physical copy or a digitally signed PDF), you must place a request through the Student/Staff Services (SSP) portal at https://ssp.iitm.ac.in/.
