SRMJEEE Admit Card 2026 - Download Steps, Slot Booking & Remote Proctoring Rules
The SRMJEEE admit card is not a document you simply download and print. You unlock it by booking an exam slot first - a process that opens barely two days before each phase and fills on a first-come, first-served basis. Wait until the night before the exam, and your preferred date may already be gone.
This page covers slot booking windows for all three phases, the exact download steps, a checklist of what to verify on your hall ticket, the documents you must show to the remote proctor, and the do's and don'ts that determine whether your session runs smoothly or gets terminated mid-exam.
SRMJEEE 2026 Admit Card - Key Dates at a Glance
All Phase 1 dates are from the official SRMIST candidate information document. Phase 2 and Phase 3 dates are based on the university's published exam calendar and independent confirmations of the slot booking windows. The admit card for each phase is issued separately; a single hall ticket does not cover multiple attempts.
Login credentials: Use your application number and date of birth, or your registered email ID and password - whichever the portal prompts on the day you log in. Keep both handy.

Slot Booking: The Step You Cannot Skip
SRMIST does not generate an admit card until you select a test date and time through its Online Test Booking System (OTBS). Each phase operates its own booking window. No slot booking = no hall ticket. No exceptions.
Phase 1 slot booking opens from 18 April 2026 (1:00 PM) to 20 April 2026 (11:00 PM). Two slots are available each exam day: 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM.
Phase 2 slot booking runs 6 - 7 June 2026. The exam follows from 10 to 15 June.
Phase 3 slot booking will be a narrow window tentatively right after the application deadline of 30 June 2026 - often just two days before the exam on 4 - 5 July. Check the official portal daily as June ends.
Slots are allotted first-come, first-served. The moment the window activates, popular dates and morning slots vanish fast. Once you confirm a slot, it cannot be changed under any circumstance. Book before you finalise travel plans or take leave.
Step-by-step slot booking
- Go to admissions.srmist.edu.in
- Log in using your application number and date of birth, or your registered email and password
- Click on "Book Exam Slot" (visible inside the candidate dashboard when the window is live)
- Select your subject combination (Physics/Chemistry/Mathematics or Biology) and exam city as already filled in your application
- Choose an available date and time slot from the displayed options
- Confirm the slot - the system will immediately generate your admit card
- Click "View / Print Hall Ticket" to download the PDF
How to Download the SRMJEEE Admit Card
Once slot booking is complete, you can re-download your hall ticket any time before the exam from the candidate portal.
- Visit srmist.edu.in or go directly to admissions.srmist.edu.in
- Locate the "SRMJEEE 2026 Admit Card" link or the candidate login
- Enter your application number and date of birth, or your email and password
- On the dashboard, click "Download Hall Ticket"
- Save the PDF. Print at least two clear copies on A4 paper.
No printed copy of the admit card will be sent to your postal address. Some candidates may receive an email copy after slot booking - but the portal download remains the primary and most reliable source. Rely on the hard copy you printed yourself.
Details to Verify on the Printed Admit Card
Before you close the PDF, scan every field. A mismatched photo, an incorrect date of birth, or a missing subject combination can cause the remote proctor to reject your identity during the live verification session.
Your hall ticket will display:
- Your full name (as in the application form)
- Guardian's name
- Application number and roll number
- Photograph and digital signature
- Exam date and exact time slot (with reporting time)
- Subject combination (PCM or PCB)
- System instructions and the unique login password for the exam platform - this password appears only on the admit card
- Remote proctoring do's and don'ts
If you find an error - a misspelled name, a blurred photo, a wrong date of birth - act immediately. Email [email protected] or call 080 6908 7000. Have your application number ready and, if possible, the correct document you want reflected. Do not wait until the morning of the exam.
If the correction cannot be made in time, carry the complaint acknowledgement and your original ID proof to the remote proctoring session. Explain the discrepancy to the proctor when prompted.
Documents You Must Show on Exam Day
The exam is remote-proctored, so you won't travel to a physical centre. Instead, you will hold each document up to your webcam for live verification.
- Printed SRMJEEE 2026 admit card - a soft copy on your phone is not accepted; mobile phones are banned from the room.
- One original government-issued photo ID - Aadhaar card (preferred), passport, voter ID, PAN card, or driving licence. A school/college ID works only if it carries a clear photograph and date of birth.
- A ready exam environment - laptop or desktop with a functioning webcam and microphone, Intel i3 (4th Gen) equivalent or above, 4 GB RAM, Windows 8 or higher / macOS 10.14 Mojave or higher, 2 GB free hard disk space, stable internet of at least 1 Mbps, and a quiet, well-lit room with no other person present.
Clear your desk of phones, smartwatches, books, notes, headphones, and any other electronic device. The proctor may ask for a 360-degree room scan at any point.
SRMJEEE 2026 Exam Day Instructions
Every rule here is enforced by an AI engine and a live human proctor watching remotely. Violations can trigger a warning, and repeated or severe offences lead to the exam being terminated with no re-test.
Before the exam
- Log in to the exam platform at least 60 minutes before your slot's start time.
- The webcam activates automatically. You will be asked to capture your photo and an image of your ID.
- Read the instruction manual carefully. It contains the quit password you will need later.
During the exam
- The test lasts 150 minutes. You cannot take a break - no leaving the chair, no bio-breaks.
- For the first 120 minutes, you cannot end the exam, even if you finish all questions early. The "I want to submit the exam" button appears only after 120 minutes elapse.
- Only one question is shown at a time. Once you answer or skip a question and move forward, you cannot return to it. There is no negative marking, so attempt every question.
- Stay facing the screen. Looking sideways or down repeatedly triggers the AI.
- Do not read questions aloud, lip-sync, or cover your face with hair, mask, or clothing.
- No other person may enter the room. No background noise, music, or television.
- Only a transparent water bottle is allowed. No food, no beverages.
- Accessing any other browser tab, using a second device, searching the internet, or attempting to log in from multiple devices will cause automatic termination.
Ending the exam
- After the lock period, click "I want to submit the exam." Enter the quit password provided in the instruction manual.
- If you do nothing, the exam will close automatically after 150 minutes.
SRMIST's official policy: no re-exam will be conducted for power cuts, internet failure, or faulty hardware. Arrange a stable setup and a backup hotspot if possible.
What If the Admit Card Won't Download?
Start with these checks:
- Did you complete slot booking? The admit card download button activates only after a slot is confirmed.
- Is the correct portal open? Use admissions.srmist.edu.in rather than a search engine landing page.
- Clear your browser cache or switch to Chrome or Firefox. The portal may behave inconsistently on some browsers.
- Confirm your application fee payment status. If it shows "pending" for more than 24 hours, raise a technical query through the application portal itself, or email [email protected].
- Forgot password? Use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page. The reset link will go to your registered email.
If the problem persists beyond these checks, call 080 6908 7000. Do not wait until the last date of the slot booking window.
Phase-Wise Summary Table
Results, counselling, and seat allotment follow separately for each phase. The admit card remains important through counselling - some campuses may ask to see it during document verification.
