IGNOU has extended the last date to submit online examination forms for the December 2026 Term End Examinations (TEE) to Wednesday, 7 October 2026, without a late fee. The original deadline was 30 September.

Students who miss the 7 October deadline can apply from 8 October to 15 October 2026 but will have to pay a late fee of Rs 1,100. The form was first released on 10 September 2026 on the IGNOU Samarth Student Portal.
The extension gives students enrolled in ODL and online programmes nine more days to apply without penalty. Those who still miss the extended deadline face a fixed late fee of Rs 1,100, which may push some to act quickly. The window from 8 to 15 October is the final opportunity for this examination cycle.
