JIPMAT 2026 Notification Soon, Registration to Start at nta.ac.in

The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to release the JIPMAT 2026 notification anytime soon on its official website, nta.ac.in. Along with the notification, the agency will activate the dedicated JIPMAT 2026 application portal, enabling eligible candidates to submit their application forms online. The Joint Integrated Programme in Management Admission Test (JIPMAT) serves as the national-level entrance examination for admission to the five-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) offered by IIM Jammu and IIM Bodh Gaya.
