No. The exam city intimation slip only informs you about the city where your test center will be located so you can arrange travel. The actual JIPMAT 2026 admit card will contain the specific venue name, address, roll number, and reporting time.
You will need your JIPMAT 2026 Application Number, your Password (or Date of Birth), and the dynamic security pin visible on the NTA login page.
Generally, the NTA does not entertain requests to change the exam city once it has been allocated based on the preferences filled out during the application process. In case of extreme emergencies, you may contact the NTA helpline.
Yes, JIPMAT follows a negative marking system. While you get 4 marks for every correct answer, 1 mark will be deducted for every incorrect response. Unanswered questions do not attract negative marks.
The NTA typically releases the official JIPMAT admit cards 3 to 4 days prior to the examination date. Expect the admit cards to drop online by the first week of June 2026.
