Maharashtra MBA/MMS CET 2026 — Registration Guide (concise)

This document summarizes the video walkthrough for registering and completing the Maharashtra MBA/MMS CET 2026 application. It covers key dates, required documents, step‑by‑step registration, fees, cautions, and what happens after submission.

Key dates and recommendations

Registration window: opened 10 Jan — closes 12 Feb.
Tentative test windows:
- Attempt 1: 6–8 April (tentative)
- Attempt 2: 9 May (may expand)
Strong recommendation: register for both attempts to maximize your opportunity.

Mandatory documents / IDs

Aadhaar card (number required)
APAR ID (Automated Permanent Academic/Account Registry ID) — 12‑digit (generate if you don’t have it)
UDID / Disability certificate if PWD
Digilocker authentication is required to fetch/share documents

Other supporting documents to have ready:

SSC (10th) and HSC (12th) mark sheets
Graduation certificate/marksheet
Domicile certificate (if applicable)
Caste / EWS certificate (if applicable)
Passport photo, signature, identity proof (Aadhaar/PAN/Driving Licence) in the portal‑allowed format/size

Important cautions (read before you start)

Many profile fields—especially domicile and certain personal details—cannot be changed after final submission. Verify eligibility and have supporting certificates ready before you submit.

Double‑check that you are registering for the Maharashtra MBA/MMS CET (not another CET).
If you are eligible for Maharashtra domicile/category/EWS but don’t yet have the certificate, select “Applied — not available” where allowed and obtain the certificate immediately.
Do not purchase the psychometric test — it is costly (~Rs.1,180) and not required for admission.
Keep your passwords, APAR ID, and copies of submitted documents safe for later admission rounds.
