GMAC has extended the NMAT by GMAC 2026 exam registration deadline from October 10 to October 25, 2026. Candidates can apply via mba.com/nmat.

The exam will be held at physical test centres across 59 Indian cities from November 2 to December 20, 2026. It features 108 questions in 120 minutes with no negative marking. Instant scores are shown after the test, and official scorecards are released 48 hours later. Candidates may take up to two retakes.
The extension gives candidates an extra 15 days to apply, which could boost applicant numbers. The exam's acceptance by over 50 business schools, including NMIMS, ISB and SPJIMR, makes it a significant gateway for management admissions in India. The shift to exclusively physical test centres this cycle ends remote testing options, which may affect candidates in smaller towns. The next deadline for candidates is October 25, after which GMAC will begin scheduling tests from November 2.
