Who can apply
Open to students currently studying in Classes 5 to 12 (2026-27). A Class 5 student can take it and use the result for next year's courses. Students in Classes 10-12 pick a Medical or an Engineering stream. Offline takers can get up to 100% scholarship on course fee components; online takers up to 80% on tuition fees only. Cash awards go to top ranks in each class. The registration fee for 2026 was not stated on the official pages checked.
When it happens
The Aakash homepage lists 1 November 2026 as the final ANTHE 2026 exam day: online window 10:00–22:00 and offline 10:30–11:30. Earlier online dates were 27–31 October; earlier offline dates are already over. This is an exam-day notice for already registered candidates, not a promise that new registration is available. The homepage and FAQ show conflicting earlier dates and registration lead times, so confirm personal slot/deadline details in the candidate login or with Aakash. No next-edition date or result date was verified. Status checked 1 November 2026; times are IST.
