The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell is expected to announce the MHT CET Result 2026 for the PCM (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) First Attempt shortly, paving the way for the state's annual engineering admission process. With thousands of students competing for seats in premier engineering institutions, the forthcoming result is expected to determine the academic trajectory of a large number of aspirants. Candidates are now closely monitoring the official portal for the activation of the PCM scorecard link.
Result to be available through candidate login
Once released, candidates will be able to access their scorecards through the official website, cetcell.mahacet.org. The result will be available only through the candidate login portal. Students will be required to enter their registered email ID and password to access their scorecards. The result document will contain detailed percentile scores in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, along with the overall percentile secured by the candidate. The scorecard will serve as the primary document for admission and counselling activities that follow the declaration of results.
PCB statistics highlight strong competition
While PCM candidates continue to wait for their results, the CET Cell has already released performance data related to the PCB First Attempt examination. According to official figures, 2,84,063 candidates registered for the PCB examination, while 2,63,213 appeared. The candidate pool included 1,03,360 male candidates, 1,59,848 female candidates and five candidates from other gender categories. The examination also witnessed exceptional performances, with 11 candidates securing a perfect 100 percentile score. The statistics underline the highly competitive nature of the MHT CET examination and indicate that PCM candidates may also face intense competition during the admission process.
CAP counselling process to begin after result
The declaration of the PCM result will not mark the end of the admission cycle. Instead, it will initiate the crucial Centralised Admission Process (CAP), which governs admissions to engineering colleges across Maharashtra. Candidates who qualify will have to complete online registration, submit academic and personal details, upload required documents and fill in their preferred colleges and courses. Seat allotment will be conducted on the basis of merit rank, reservation category, candidate preferences and availability of seats in participating institutions. Admission experts advise students to remain alert during every stage of the counselling process, as missed deadlines can directly impact seat allocation.
Documents students should keep ready
Candidates planning to participate in counselling should prepare all required documents in advance to avoid last-minute difficulties. The key documents include:
- MHT CET 2026 scorecard
- Class 10 mark sheet
- Class 12 mark sheet
- Domicile certificate
- Aadhaar card
- Category certificate (if applicable)
- Other supporting documents as prescribed by the CET Cell
Early preparation can help ensure a smoother document verification process once counselling schedules are announced.
