Source check: 30 September 2026. The official India FAQ says the next session after 26 September 2026 is planned for Q1 2027. Its exact date remains unconfirmed. Check the official announcement before arranging travel or treating a day as bookable.
The September cycle is now historical

Read the official FAQ announcement before relying on this dated summary. A planned quarter is not a confirmed day, an open registration window or a guaranteed certificate-delivery date.
Build your calendar backwards
- Find your actual programme’s application deadline and the documents it asks for.
- Check APS instructions relevant to your degree and situation.
- Check the confirmed test announcement, registration deadline and result schedule when published.
- Leave time for your own document preparation, checking and submission.
Write each deadline with its source and the date you checked it. Do not infer a registration deadline by subtracting the interval from the previous cycle. A new session may use a different schedule.
If you took the September test
Keep registration details and portal access available while awaiting results. Use the scheduled result date as a reminder to inspect the official portal, not as proof that your certificate has already been issued. If a document is absent or incorrect, ask the responsible organisation through its official support channel.
Preparation can continue while you await results, but another custom practice attempt cannot tell you what your official result will be.
If you are preparing for the next session
Use the unconfirmed interval for method practice and official-interface familiarisation. The four-week study plan can run independently of a booked day. Once a confirmed date exists, adapt the final review week to that calendar.
