Overview
- The CET Cell has submitted a proposal to raise application fees by Rs 150 to Rs 250, and it awaits approval from the Higher and Technical Education Department.
- Current charges are about Rs 500–600 for pen-and-paper exams and Rs 800–1,000 for computer-based tests, depending on the specific CET.
- For 2026, the Cell will run MHT-CET twice, and officials say MBA CET will also have two sessions to give candidates another chance to improve scores.

- The CET Cell conducts 19 exams across 72 programmes, and more than 1.4 million candidates took part last year with participation expected to climb in the next cycle.
