What This Means for Candidates?

With the timetable officially released, candidates can now organise their preparation according to session-wise paper allocation. Students appearing for papers with back-to-back sessions can plan revision strategies more effectively, especially for streams such as Computer Science (CS-1 and CS-2) and Civil Engineering (CE-1 and CE-2), which appear on different days. IIT Guwahati has also reminded applicants to ensure that their GOAPS login details remain active and updated, as all future announcements—including admit card release, exam instructions and result timeline—will be issued through the same portals. The release of the paper-wise schedule marks the first major step in the GATE twenty twenty-six timeline. Further updates are expected in the coming weeks, and candidates are advised to check the official website regularly.
