GPAT 2025 Admit Card

GPAT 2025 Admit Card — a admit card release — is summarised below. The key figures are an application window closing 21 April 2025 and a fee of ₹3,500 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

Applications open on 01 April 2025 and close on 21 April 2025, giving candidates 21 days to complete the process. At 21 days this is a normal-length window, but the fee and upload steps are the ones that fail late, so leave a few days of margin. Fee payment closes on 21/04/2025 — note that this can fall on a different day from the form deadline, and an unpaid form is not a submitted form. A correction window is listed (25-28 April 2025), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 25/05/2025; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

On qualifications, the notification states: B.Tech Pharmaceutical and Fine Chemical Technology Candidates Are Not Eligible. If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹2,500 and ₹3,500, depending on category. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, net banking, and offline bank challan. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

Check the admit card for the three things candidates most often get wrong: the reporting time (typically well before the exam time), the exact centre address, and the list of permitted items. Carry a printed copy plus the photo ID named on the card — a digital copy on a phone is not accepted at most centres.
