KEAM 2026 result will be announced by the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) on the official website, cee.kerala.gov.in. The results will first display the KEAM 2026 scores of all candidates, followed by a notification asking qualified candidates to submit their Plus Two marks. The final engineering rank list will be prepared by giving equal weightage: 50% to the KEAM entrance exam score and 50% to the Plus Two marks. The KEAM 2026 result is expected to be released in May 2026, with the final rank list likely to be published in June 2026. Since the KEAM 2026 Exam is conducted in multiple sessions, CEE will use a normalisation process, setting the total marks after normalisation at 300. Candidates are advised to download and keep the result safe, as it is required for the Centralised Allotment Process (CAP). Only those who qualify become eligible to participate in counselling for Engineering, Pharmacy, and Architecture seats across Kerala.
