Maharashtra CET CAP 2026: The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has extended the registration deadline for MHT CET CAP 2026 (for B.E./B.Tech admissions) to July 16, 2026. This decision was taken after many candidates faced difficulties retrieving their JEE Main percentile scores from DigiLocker due to technical issues and name mismatches.
The Maharashtra CET Cell has now resolved this issue and advised affected candidates to log in to the CAP portal and complete the process of fetching their JEE Main scores before submitting their applications. Candidates who have already submitted their forms can also unlock and edit their applications if necessary.
Issue Regarding JEE Main Score Retrieval Resolved; Candidates Asked to Complete Maharashtra CET CAP Applications
According to the official notice, candidates applying for engineering admissions based on JEE Main scores were unable to retrieve their percentiles due to technical glitches between DigiLocker and the CAP portal. The Maharashtra CET Cell stated that the issue has now been resolved in coordination with the National Testing Agency (NTA).
Candidates who previously faced difficulties should log in to the CAP portal, retrieve their JEE Main percentile, verify the details, and complete the application process within the extended deadline.
