SRM Institute of Science and Technology (SRMIST)
SRMIST opened SRMJEEE 2026 registrations on 30 October 2025-a deliberate head start on most other private engineering entrance exams. You get three attempts between April and July 2026, each costing ₹1,400. The fee is identical for every candidate, regardless of category, and non-refundable. One missed verification email or a blurry signature upload can stall your application right at the gate.
| Phase | Application Deadline | Slot Booking (Phase 1 confirmed) | Mock Test (Online) | Exam Dates |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | 16 April 2026 | 18 Apr 2026 (1:00 PM) - 20 Apr 2026 (11:00 PM) | 21 Apr 2026 - 23 Apr 2026 | 24 - 29 April 2026 |
| Phase 2 | 04 June 2026 | To be announced | To be announced | 10 - 15 June 2026 |
| Phase 3 | 30 June 2026 | To be announced | To be announced | 04 - 05 July 2026 |
Phase 1 exams run in two daily slots: Forenoon 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM and Afternoon 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM. For Phase 2 and Phase 3, the slot booking windows and mock test dates will be notified on the admission portal shortly before the exam.
Check these points before you even open the registration page. A single unmet condition can make your entire application void.
intlapplications.srmist.edu.in. The standard Indian-category portal will not accept your application. The international application fee is USD 50 or INR 3,000, and you may be eligible for direct admission without SRMJEEE-provided you satisfy the eligibility criteria and pay the international fee structure.The whole process lives online at applications.srmist.edu.in/btech. There is no offline form, no demand-draft option for the application fee.
Go to the portal, click Register. You will enter:
An email will land in your inbox-check spam if it doesn’t appear within 10 minutes. Click the verification link inside. Until you verify, your account is inactive and you cannot log in.
Warning: The email ID you use here becomes your permanent login for all communications: admit card, result, counselling notices, fee reminders. SRMIST does not permit email changes later. Pick a personal account that will still exist in August 2026.
After verification, log in with your credentials. Your dashboard shows the B.Tech application; click Apply Now.
The form is multi-section. You will need:
The form also asks you to select campus and programme preferences. This choice has zero bearing on your final seat allotment. SRMIST collects it only for statistical analysis. Your actual campus and branch selection will happen during online counselling, after you have your SRMJEEE rank.
You need exactly two image files, both JPEG:
| Document | Maximum File Size | Dimensions |
|---|---|---|
| Recent colour passport photo | 5 MB | 200 × 230 pixels (3.5 cm × 4.5 cm) |
| Signature | 5 MB | 140 × 60 pixels (3.5 cm × 1.5 cm) |
Use a plain white or light-coloured background. Blurry photos, shadows on the face, or a signature that extends beyond the frame can cause instant rejection. The photo must clearly show your face - it will appear on your admit card and be matched by the AI proctor on exam day.
The fee is ₹1,400 per phase, across all categories. Payment is online only: debit card, credit card, net banking, or UPI.
Each phase requires a separate application and payment. If you apply for Phase 1 and later decide to attempt Phase 2 as well, you must submit a fresh application and pay again.
The fee is non-refundable under any circumstance. If your payment status shows “pending” for more than 24 hours, do not pay again. Raise a technical query through the portal’s Query Management System. Double payments are extremely difficult to reverse.
Review every field before you click the final payment button. Once the fee is paid, no edits are allowed. SRMIST does not open a separate correction window after payment. Only before payment can you go back and fix errors.
After successful payment, download and print your application confirmation. Note your application number-you will need it for slot booking, admit card download, and result checks.
Here’s what happens next, using Phase 1 as the concrete example. Phase 2 and Phase 3 will follow a similar rhythm.
Slot booking opens on the admission portal at admissions.srmist.edu.in. You log in with your registered email and password, or with your application number and date of birth.
Pick a date and a time slot (morning or afternoon) from the available options. Two slots per day exist, and seats fill up fast-this is a first-come, first-served process. Once you confirm a slot, you cannot change it. Booking starts on 18 April at 1:00 PM and closes on 20 April at 11:00 PM. If you miss this window, SRMIST may auto-assign a slot, but it won’t necessarily be your preferred one.
Immediately after booking, your hall ticket becomes available for download. Print at least two copies and keep a soft copy.
The mock exam is not optional-SRMIST’s guidelines use the word “compulsorily”. You can take it any time between 11:00 AM on 21 April and 8:00 PM on 23 April.
To access it, you must download and install a secure exam browser from the link provided on the admission portal (the exact address is communicated via email and available on the portal before the mock window). This same browser will be used for the real exam. The mock test replicates the real remote-proctored environment, including:
Skipping the mock test is risky. It’s the only way to confirm your webcam, microphone, and internet connection work with SRMIST’s proctoring software. If your system fails during the real exam due to an avoidable setup issue, no re-exam will be conducted.
Whether for mock or real, you need:
Mobile phones and tablets cannot be used.
Your hall ticket shows your photograph, application number, roll number, selected exam date and time, subject combination, and detailed instructions. On exam day, you must also hold a valid photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, passport, driving licence, or school ID). Both will be checked through the webcam before the test starts.
You must log into the exam platform 60 minutes before your slot to complete identity verification: a live photograph of yourself and a clear photo of your ID. The exam starts exactly at the scheduled time, and the “I want to submit” button appears only after 120 minutes have passed. You cannot leave your seat or move out of the camera frame for the entire 150-minute duration.
If you hold an NRI, PIO, or OCI card, you are ineligible for the standard Indian application. Use the dedicated international portal:
intlapplications.srmist.edu.in/international-application-2026
Key differences:
If you are an Indian citizen but studied abroad, select “Indian” at registration and furnish your educational background details. You still need to appear for SRMJEEE.
After each phase’s result is declared online, qualified candidates receive an email about online counselling. The process involves:
Except for the ₹10,000 registration portion, fees are refundable as per AICTE norms if you withdraw within the stipulated period.
