NIFT Answer Key 2022 delayed: expected date, steps to download, objection filing

The National Institute of Fashion Technology was slated to release the answer key of NIFT 2022 for the GAT written test in the 2nd week of February.

The National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) conducted the NIFT 2022 entrance exam on February 6, 2022. The institute was scheduled to release the answer key for the General Ability Test (GAT) in the 2nd week of February 2022. But with the answer key yet to be released even after the due date, it is bound to cause some anxiety among students. Note that the design institute doesn’t release any answer keys for the CAT written test. 

The NIFT exam comprises two parts:

1. General Ability Test (GAT)
2. Creative Ability Test (CAT)

This year, the NIFT entrance exam was conducted in online, remote-proctored mode given the prevailing pandemic situation. The institute also had conducted a series of mock tests to help them get attuned to the new exam mode.

Also, remember that after the release of the answer key, the candidate will be given a window to challenge any key (s).
