The National Testing Agency, which is conducting the NIFT 2024 exam, usually declares results conducted by it (for instance JEE Main) either late at night or in the early morning. That being said there is no certainity as to when NTA will declare NIFT 2024 results.

The candidate can follow our page to stay updated about all the latest updates on NIFT 2024 results. We will notify any update released by the NTA/ NIFT.

Or else, you may also visit the official websites here:

• nift.ac.in/admission
• exams.nta.ac.in/NIFT

We have tried to contact NIFT and NTA officials regarding the NIFT 2024 results, but to no avail. The officials have not responded. Couple this with the fact that there is no update on the official portal as well, it is a sure recipe for confusion and anxiety among students.

So far, there has been no update on NIFT 2024 results either from the NTA nor the National Institute of Fashion Technology.

This is what the NIFT admission portal looks like at the moment.

Here are a few colleges that may consider NIFT 2024 scores for admission to the UG and PG design courses:

• CMR University, Bangalore
• World University of Design, Sonipat
• Vishwakarma University, Pune
• ISDI School of Design and Innovation, Mumbai

Yes, as per the official notification, NTA is also supposed to release the recorded responses of the candidate. The recorded responses in typically the carbon copy of the candidate's answer sheet. The candidate has to download the recorded responses using their application number and date of birth.

The recorded responses in tandem with the answer key can be used to calculate probable scores.

The candidate was given the option to challenge the draft key between February 18 and 19, 2024 (11 pm). If an answer key is incorrect in the draft key, then it will be replaced by the correct key in the final answer key.

Also, scoring will be done using the correct key.

There will be no provision to challenge the final answer key. This means the keys given in the final answer key will be considered the correct answer options. Also, the final key will be used to prepare NIFT 2024 results.

The National Testing Agency hasn't yet given a specific date for the release of the FINAL answer key. The final key will be prepared by considering the feedback complaints filed by the candidate against the draft key. Note that the draft key was released on February 18, 2024.

Meanwhile, objections against the draft key were accepted up to February 19, 2024 (11 pm).

The overall course-wise seat for NIFT 2024 is given below.

This is what the NIFT 2024 admit card download window looks like:

No, the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) will release separate admit cards for the Situation Test. Admit cards will be issued once the slot booking process is over. 

Note that if you bring the written exam admit card, you will not allowed entry inside the exam hall.

The Situation Test will be conducted at NIFT campuses. The name and address of the specific venue allocated to the candidate will be mentioned in the admit card. 

Note that all shortlisted candidates are required to select the campus of their choice within the given window. The allotment of campuses will be done on a first-come, first-served basis.

The mode of the test will be offline.

The NTA hasn't yet released any official update on NIFT 2024 results. This is what the NIFT admission portal looks like at the moment:

 

There is no option to apply for a re-check of NIFT 2024 results. So, your scorecard can't be modified once it has been released. However, note that candidates were given the opportunity to file objections against the draft answer key.

The final answer key will be prepared by considering the feedback given by the candidate against thedraft key.

The information brochure for the NIFT 2024 exam is available on the admission portal - nift.ac.in/admission. Alternatively, you can download the brochure below.

The table below can help you get an idea the kind of score you need to secure for admission to your chosen program. 

Here is the official NIFT cut-off for previous editions of the NIFT entrance exam.

This edition of the NIFT 2024 written exam is conducted by the NTA. So, there is every chance the result log-in window will be different. However, if you are wondering how does the result log-in window looks like, here is a sample from the last edition (when the exam was conducted by the National Institute of Fashion Technology).

Social media channels are now flooded with memes and jokes, and students try to vent their stress and frustration. A student commented in jest that "NTA conducted the exam and forgot about it!"

Another student was like"bhai ye nift jaan le lega."

Then there was this fuuny line by yet another candidate "logo ka kal nehi aata aur nift walo ka aaj kabhi nehi aata"!

On the day of the personal interview, you need to bring along a portfolio with you that you have to present to the interview panel. Make sure that the items included in the portfolio reflect your best works across a wide spectrum. Also, do some research and preparation as to why you have included those items in the portfolio.

NIFT 2024 will have the following 18 participating colleges.

The NIFT 2024 draft answer key was released on February 18, 2024. The candidate was given the chance to file objections against the draft answer key from February 18-19. 2024 (11 pm). The feedback of the candidate will be taken into consideration for releasing the final answer key.

Here are a few questions that may be asked during the NIFT 2024 personal interview:

• Question 1: Please introduce yourself.
• Question 2: Where are you from and why is your place known?
• Question 3: What is the occupation of your parents and where do you live?
• Question 4: Why do you want to be a designer or pursue a course in design?
• Question 5: What is your favorite gadget or product and why do you like it so much?

This is what the NIFT - NTA admission portal 2024 looks like at the moment. As you can see, there is no update on NIFT 2024 results.

The current status of NIFT 2024 has not been declared yet. This means the status quo hasn't changed yet. The NTA hasn't also given any update on when the results will be declared or why the results have gotten late.

Candidates need to qualify in the written exams to be shortlisted for the Situation Test/ Personal Interview. The qualifying cut-off will be prepared category-wise.

It is likely that the category-wise cut-off would be released at the time of the declaration of results. The cut-off may also be included as part of the scorecard.

The following tie-breaker sequence will be used to allocate merit ranks if two or more candidates score the same marks in the NIFT 2024 exam.

1. The marks scored by the candidate in tests with higher weightage will be considered to break the tie. For example, in the case of the B.Des program, marks obtained in CAT will be compared to break the tie.
2. If CAT marks are equal, then marks obtained in GAT will be considered. 
3. If the tie is still undecided, then subject-wise marks in the following order will be considered: Communication Ability, English Comprehension, Quantitative Ability, Analytical Ability, and General Knowledge and Current Affairs.

The subject-wise test components and weightage for preparing the NIFT 2024 final results is given in the table below.

It is mandatory for the candidate to qualify in the written exam. It is because unless the candidate gets qualified, he or she will not be invited for the Situation Test/ Personal Interview.

Note that the final results will be prepared by giving weightage to both the written exam and situation test/ interview.

As per the schedule given in the NIFT 2024 prospectus, the final results of NIFT 2024 will be declared tentatively in the final week of April 2024. The final results will be prepared by giving weightage to the written exams and the Situation Test/ Personal Interview.

You can check the final results online by entering your email id and password.

The NIFT Situation Test is the 2nd stage of the NIFT admission process.

The purpose of the situation test is to hands-on skills, creativity, and problem-solving abilities of the candidate. During the test, the candidate will be assigned a number of design-related tasks.

The Situation Test carries 20% weightage, so you can afford to be complacent.

No, unlike B.Des candidates, B.F.Tech applicants aren’t required to appear in a Situation Test. Instead, the merit list for the program will be prepared solely on the basis of the General Ability Test (GAT). 

However, note that the final results of the B.F.Tech program will be released alongside results of the B.Des program.

While the National Institute of Fashion Technology doesn’t release any official release any figures, it is estimated that around 40,000 students appear in the NIFT entrance exam every year.

Please note that this edition of the NIFT exam (NIFT 2024) is conducted by the NTA. So, there is a chance that we can get a pure number this time around.

This is a sample of the exam statistics released by the NTA (JEE Main exam):

The topper list for the written exam may also be released by the NTA. The topper list in that case may include the name of the toppers, their application number, marks, and category and national merit ranks.

So, you need to stay tuned to the latest updates on NIFT 2024 results here.

This is what the topper list looks like:

This edition of the NIFT 2024 exam is conducted by the NTA. Given, the NTA releases detailed exam analyisis for exams like JEE Main and NEET, it is likely that it will also release the exam statistics for the NIFT exam.

The exam stats may include information like the number of candidates registering for the NIFT exam, number of appeared, and qualified candidates.

The NIFT admission cut-off is the minimum mark one needs to secure to get admission to a chosen program. Note that the cut-off will be released category-wise for all 18 participating colleges.

The cut-off will be prepared by considering factors like seat intake, number of applicants, ,category, merit rank of applicants, etc.

No, the NTA hasn't yet declared the results. The results, if and when declared, will be updated on this page. 

The Election Commission has announced the dates for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The elections will be held in 7 phases from April 19 to June 1, 2024. 

With the election dates out, it will be interesting to see how the National Institute of Fashion Technology schedules its remaining events. 

Note that the NTA is yet to declare the results of the written exams; so any more delay could mean NIFT has to come with a cramped schedule or dates may clash with election dates.

NIFT NLEA stands for NIFT Lateral Entry Admission. This scheme allows the candidate to apply for direct admission to the 3rd semester of the UG program of NIFT. To be eligible for admission under this scheme, the candidate must have passed a Diploma in relevant or related fields of Design & Technology.

B.Des candidates who qualify in the written exams have to appear in a Situation Test that will evaluate the “material handling and the innovative ability” of the candidate.

Skills like “Space Visualization, Innovative and creative use of given material, the composition of elements, color scheme, construction skill, the finesse of the model and overall presentation, etc., will be tested during the situation test.

The candidate will also have to submit a write-up in English explaining the model. 

No, the NTA will not conduct the Situation Test/ Personal Interview. Instead, the 2nd stage of the admission process, including counseling and seat allotment will be conducted by the National Institute of Fashion Technology.

Note that candidates will be shortlisted for the Situation Test/ Personal Interview based on their scores in the written exam.

There are 18 colleges that will participate in NIFT 2024 counseling and seat allotment. These colleges offer the following courses:

1. B.Des
2. M.Des
3. M.F.Tech
4. B.F.Tech
5. M.F.M

In the previous edition, when the NIFT entrance exam was conducted by the National Institute of Fashion Technology, this is what the NIFT result log-in window looked like:

However, don't expect the log-in window to look the same this time around. This is because the NIFT 2024 written exam is conducted by the NTA.  

The delay in the declaration of the NIFT 2024 results means that students are eagerly and anxiously waiting for it to be declared anytime now. But with such feverish anticipation, when the results are finally declared, the server could face very high traffic, which could crash it.

So, if you are unable to check the results immediately after it is declared, you needn't worry. Simply try after some time, and you should be able to download the scorecard. 

That being said, if you keep facing the same problem, contact NIFT NTA exam officials.

Also, if you have lost the candidate login credentials, use the "Forgot password" option to regenerate it.

If you are wondering if NIFT 2024 results have been declared, the answer is no. NTA has neither declared the results nor given any update as to when the results will be declared. So, as a candidate, you don't have much option rather than to wait patiently for the results to be declared in the coming days. 

The qualifying status of the candidate should be mentioned in the NIFT 2024 scorecard. So, after logging into the result portal, along with the scores, also look for the qualifying status. Note that unless you qualify in the written exam, you can't appear in the Situation Test/ Personal Interview.

Further, only such candidates who appear in both the written exam and personal interview will be included in the NIFT 2024 merit list. 

As per the schedule given in the NIFT 2024 information brochure, the NIFT 2024 situation test will be conducted in April 2024. But note that the exact and detailed schedule will be notified at the time of the declaration of NIFT 2024 results or sometime soon after. 

Note that an exam is re-conducted only if candidates face any technical or other issue during the exam and as such are unable to complete the exam. However, no such thing took place during the NIFT 2024 written exam. 

So, the NTA is not be reconducting the NIFT 2024 exam. 

Please note that in the previous edition of the NIFT exam, some centers faced technical issues due to which GAT paper was re-conducted in those centers.

The NIFT 2023 exam was reconducted in the following centers:

• MBC THANE - MUMBAI
• VIDHAN PUBLIC SCHOOL - GHAZIABAD
• M.P ENGLISH SCHOOL - VARANASI
• P.T. SALAGRAM - NOIDA

The dates for the Lok Sabha elections will be announced today. Note that if any events clash with the election dates, there is a chance the date may be postponed or rescheduled. For instance, there is practically zero chance that the Situation Test or Interview will be conducted on an election date. 

So, it will be interesting to see how things unfold.

The declaration of NIFT 2024 results this year has been delayed. To top it the NTA hasn't even announced a result date. This means many students are on the edge expecting the results to be declared anytime.

A delay in the declaration of the results also means that the admission schedule can get cramped. If that happens, the Situation Test and Personal Interview more or less will be conducted within a few days of the declaration of exam results.

And if that happens, students will have very little time to prepare.

The NIFT 2024 scorecard will be considered by all the participating colleges for admission to the B.Des, M.Des, B.F.Tech, M.F.Tech, and M.F. M courses. Further, NIFT merit ranks will also be considered by private institutes like CMR University, MIT World Peace University, and the World University of Design for admission purposes.

The validity of the NIFT scorecard is normally one year.

The merit rank of the candidate for admission to the B.Des program will be prepared considering the performance of the candidate in the NIFT 2024 written exam and Situation Test.

Also, the final result will be prepared by giving weightage to each test components (as shown below):

• GAT (50%)
• CAT (30%)
• Situation Test (20%)
