FMGE Result 2026: How to Check Your October Session Result and Download the Scorecard

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has declared the FMGE Result 2026 for the October session, and candidates who took the screening test on 31 October 2026 can now check whether they have qualified. The result has been published as a PDF on the official NBEMS website, natboard.edu.in, and individual scorecards will follow later this month. This guide explains exactly how to find your roll number and score in the result PDF, how to download your scorecard, what the qualifying marks are, and what your next step is — whether you have cleared the exam or missed it this time.

FMGE — the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination — is the screening test that Indian citizens and Overseas Citizens of India who completed their primary medical qualification abroad must clear before they can register to practise medicine in India. Like our other step-by-step guides on Online Challan Checker, this page walks you through the official process only, using the official portal and verified information.

Quick Answer: The FMGE Result 2026 (October session) was declared by NBEMS on 10 November 2026. Check your result in the official result PDF on natboard.edu.in — open the FMGE October 2026 result notice, download the PDF and search for your roll number. You qualify if you have scored at least 150 marks out of 300. Individual scorecards can be downloaded from 20 November 2026 onwards by logging in with your User ID and password on natboard.edu.in. In this session, 9,354 candidates qualified, a pass percentage of 22.87%.

FMGE Result 2026 – October Session Overview

NBEMS conducted the FMGE October 2026 session as a computer-based test on 31 October 2026 and declared the result on 10 November 2026, ten days after the exam. The result is available in PDF format on natboard.edu.in, and the result notice is also linked from nbe.edu.in. The PDF lists each candidate’s application sequence number, roll number, total score out of 300 and result status — Pass or Fail.

How to Check FMGE Result 2026 in the Result PDF

Official result page: natboard.edu.in — open the public notice for the FMGE October 2026 result to download the official result PDF. No login is needed for the PDF; the login is only for your individual scorecard.

The October session result has been released as one combined result PDF — there is no separate login needed just to see whether you have passed. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the official NBEMS website, natboard.edu.in.
  2. On the homepage, look at the notices section and open the notice titled for the result of the FMGE October 2026 session. (The same result is also linked from nbe.edu.in.)
  3. Download the result PDF to your phone or computer. It is a large document, so give it a moment to load fully.
  4. Use the find option (Ctrl + F on a computer, or “Find in page” on a phone) and type your roll number exactly as it appears on your admit card.
  5. Against your roll number you will see your total score out of 300 and your result status — Pass or Fail. Save a copy or screenshot of the page showing your entry for your records.

If your roll number does not appear with a Pass/Fail status, check the spelling of the number once more and read the notes below on absent and withheld results in the statistics section. Only trust the PDF hosted on natboard.edu.in — result PDFs circulating on social media or messaging apps should always be cross-checked against the official website.

The entries in the official PDF are arranged in ascending order of roll numbers, and each entry shows the candidate’s application sequence number, roll number, total score and result. The genuine NBEMS result PDF is digitally signed by the board — a PDF that reaches you only through social media forwards, or one without the board’s digital signature, should not be trusted. NBEMS keeps the result PDF on its website until the result of the next FMGE session is declared, but download and save your own copy now instead of depending on it staying online.

How to Download the FMGE Scorecard 2026

The result PDF tells you your score and status, and your individual scorecard is the detailed record of your marks. One warning before you proceed: the scorecard is not the document used for medical registration. NBEMS has clarified that a State Medical Council will not accept the downloadable scorecard in place of the FMGE Pass Certificate, which is issued only after in-person verification — see the section ‘What to Do After You Qualify’ below. NBEMS will host scorecards on natboard.edu.in from 20 November 2026. To download yours:

  1. Visit natboard.edu.in on or after 20 November 2026.
  2. Open the FMGE scorecard / applicant login link given for the October 2026 session.
  3. Log in with the User ID and password you created when applying for FMGE.
  4. Open your scorecard and verify the details on it: your name, roll number, application ID, date of birth, total (aggregate) marks, paper-wise marks and qualifying status.
  5. Download the scorecard PDF and take a printout. Keep both a digital copy and a printed copy safe.

Do not delay this step. As per the NBEMS notice, scorecards will remain available on the website only for six months from the date of issue, and requests to provide a scorecard after that window closes will not be entertained. If you forget your login password, use the forgot-password option on the login page rather than creating a new account.

FMGE Qualifying Marks – What Counts as a Pass

The qualifying rule for FMGE is simple and the same for every candidate:

  • You must score a minimum of 150 marks out of 300 to be declared qualified.
  • There is no category-wise cut-off or relaxation — the 150-mark requirement applies uniformly to all candidates.
  • The result is declared only as Pass or Fail against this threshold; there is no merit rank for registration purposes.
  • NBEMS does not provide for re-evaluation, rechecking or re-totalling of FMGE answers, and there are no grace marks. A score of 149 is a fail, and it cannot be revised through any application.

This session shows how strict the threshold is: analysis of the result PDF shows 5,365 candidates scored between 140 and 149 — within ten marks of qualifying — yet they remain not qualified and will need to appear again in a later session.

FMGE October 2026 Result Statistics

The result document published by NBEMS contains 42,113 candidate entries. Based on the figures in the official result PDF, as reported by EdexLive and Careers360, the October 2026 session looks like this:

Total entries in result PDF42,113
Candidates with result declared (Pass/Fail)40,893
Qualified (scored 150 or above)9,354
Did not qualify31,539
Marked absent1,190
Results withheld30
Overall pass percentage22.87% (of declared results)

Roughly three out of every four candidates who took the October session did not clear it, which is in line with FMGE’s usual pattern of a pass percentage in the low twenties. If your result is among the 30 withheld entries, NBEMS releases such results only after the pending verification for those candidates is completed — keep watching the notices on natboard.edu.in and respond promptly if NBEMS asks you for any document.

What to Do After You Qualify

Qualifying in FMGE is the eligibility step, not the final registration itself. In general, candidates who have qualified should now:

  1. Download and preserve your scorecard from natboard.edu.in when it is released on 20 November 2026 — you will need it for registration, and it is only hosted for six months.
  2. Complete NBEMS verification: the result remains provisional until NBEMS verifies your identity and credentials in person. Attend the verification with your original documents — admit card, primary medical qualification certificate, eligibility certificate, passport/ID and other documents listed by NBEMS — whenever you are called.
  3. Collect your FMGE Pass Certificate: the certificate is issued only in person, after biometric and Face ID verification, and it is this certificate — not the scorecard — that a State Medical Council accepts for registration. NBEMS will announce the certificate distribution schedule separately on natboard.edu.in; reports indicate the certificates are expected within about four weeks of the result. Collect yours within six months of the result declaration: NBEMS has warned that candidates who fail to collect the certificate in time may face cancellation of their candidature and result.
  4. Apply for registration: with your Pass Certificate, apply to the State Medical Council of the state where you intend to practise (under the National Medical Commission framework) for provisional or permanent registration, as applicable to your case.
  5. Complete internship if required: candidates who have not completed an internship as required under the applicable NMC rules must complete the Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship (CRMI) in India after provisional registration, and then apply for permanent registration.

Rules and document lists for registration are set by the NMC and the State Medical Councils and can change; always confirm the current requirements on the official council website of your state before applying.

Did Not Qualify? What You Can Do Next

Missing the 150-mark line is common — 31,539 candidates are in that position in this session alone. Here is what is and is not possible:

  • No re-evaluation: there is no provision to get your answers rechecked or re-totalled, and no grace marks are awarded, even if you scored 148 or 149.
  • Download your scorecard anyway: your scorecard still shows your paper-wise marks from 20 November 2026. Use it to see which paper and subjects pulled you below the line, so your preparation for the next attempt is targeted rather than general.
  • Appear in the next session: NBEMS now conducts FMGE three times a year — the October sitting is the session that was recently added — and every session is announced through an information bulletin on natboard.edu.in. When the next session is notified, apply afresh within the application window and appear again — many candidates clear FMGE on a second attempt with focused revision.
  • Keep your documents ready: eligibility and document problems are a common cause of withheld results and rejected applications, so re-check that your eligibility certificate and medical qualification documents are in order well before you apply again.

Frequently Asked Questions

When was the FMGE Result 2026 for the October session declared?

NBEMS declared the FMGE October 2026 result on 10 November 2026. The exam was held on 31 October 2026, so the result came ten days after the test.

Where can I check the FMGE Result 2026?

On the official NBEMS website, natboard.edu.in. The result is published as a PDF through the result notice for the FMGE October 2026 session (also linked from nbe.edu.in). Open the PDF and search for your roll number to see your score and Pass/Fail status.

What are the qualifying marks for FMGE?

You need at least 150 marks out of 300 to qualify. The same cut-off applies to every candidate — there is no separate category-wise qualifying mark.

How many candidates passed the FMGE October 2026 exam?

9,354 candidates qualified out of 40,893 candidates whose results were declared as Pass or Fail — a pass percentage of 22.87%. Another 1,190 candidates were marked absent and the results of 30 candidates were withheld.

When can I download my FMGE scorecard, and how?

Scorecards will be available from 20 November 2026 on natboard.edu.in. Log in with the User ID and password from your FMGE application and download the scorecard PDF. It will stay on the website only for six months from the date of issue, so download and print it early.

What details does the FMGE scorecard show?

The scorecard shows your name, roll number, application ID, date of birth, examination session, total aggregate marks, paper-wise marks and your qualifying status (Pass/Fail). Check every detail when you download it — and remember that the scorecard is your record of marks, not a registration document: for registration, the State Medical Council will ask for the FMGE Pass Certificate issued after verification.

I scored 148. Can I apply for rechecking or get grace marks?

No. NBEMS has no provision for re-evaluation, rechecking or re-totalling in FMGE, and no grace marks are given. In this session 5,365 candidates scored between 140 and 149; all of them will have to appear in the next session to qualify.

My result is shown as withheld. What should I do?

NBEMS withheld the results of 30 candidates in this session, and the board has said the reasons are being communicated to those candidates by email. Withheld results are released after the pending verification for those candidates is completed. Keep checking the notices on natboard.edu.in, and if NBEMS contacts you for documents or clarification, respond within the time given.

What is the next step after qualifying in FMGE?

Download your scorecard, complete the NBEMS in-person verification of identity and credentials, collect your FMGE Pass Certificate, and then apply to your State Medical Council for registration. The council registers you on the basis of the Pass Certificate — the scorecard alone is not accepted. If you have not completed an internship as required under the applicable NMC rules, you will first take provisional registration, complete the Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship (CRMI) in India, and then apply for permanent registration.

Is the FMGE Result 2026 out? How do I download the result PDF?

Yes. NBEMS declared the FMGE October 2026 result on 10 November 2026, and it is published as one combined PDF on natboard.edu.in — no login is needed to download it. Open the result notice for the FMGE October 2026 session on the NBEMS website, download the PDF and search for your roll number with Ctrl + F (or “Find in page” on a phone). The full step-by-step process is given in the section ‘How to Check FMGE Result 2026 in the Result PDF’ above.

Can I check the FMGE Result 2026 name-wise?

There is no official name-wise result list. The NBEMS result PDF is arranged in ascending order of roll numbers and shows the application sequence number, roll number, total score and Pass/Fail status against each entry — it does not print candidate names. To find your own result, search the PDF by your roll number. Your name appears on your individual scorecard, which you download through the applicant login on natboard.edu.in from 20 November 2026. Any website or message offering a “name-wise” FMGE result is not an official source.

What is the pass percentage of FMGE 2026?

The pass percentage for the FMGE October 2026 session is 22.87%. Of the 40,893 candidates whose results were declared as Pass or Fail, 9,354 scored 150 or more and qualified, while 31,539 did not. A further 1,190 candidates were marked absent and the results of 30 candidates were withheld, so they are not counted in the pass percentage.

Who is the topper of FMGE 2026?

NBEMS does not officially declare a topper for FMGE. It is a qualifying examination: the board publishes each candidate’s score and Pass/Fail status, not a merit list or ranking, because every candidate above 150 is treated as equally qualified. The highest score recorded in the official October 2026 result PDF is 249 out of 300, as compiled from the PDF by the education portal Shiksha; since the PDF is roll-number based, NBEMS has not attached any candidate’s name to that score. “Topper” names and photos shared by coaching institutes on social media are their own promotional claims, not an official NBEMS announcement.

At what time was the FMGE Result 2026 released?

NBEMS does not announce a fixed clock time for FMGE results in advance. The information bulletin for this session had indicated that the result would be declared by 30 November 2026; the result notice was actually published on natboard.edu.in on 10 November 2026. The scorecard follows the same pattern: it will be available on the website on or after 20 November 2026, with no specific hour announced — check the website during that day rather than waiting for a particular time.

What if there is a mistake in my result details?

First, re-check your entry in the official result PDF on natboard.edu.in; do not rely on screenshots or PDFs forwarded through social media. If your roll number, score or status still looks wrong, contact NBEMS directly on its helpline, 011-45593000, the number published with the board’s FMGE result information. NBEMS does not charge any fee in connection with its own result records, and no agent or website can get a result changed — anyone demanding money for that is running a scam.

Conclusion

The FMGE Result 2026 for the October session is out: check your roll number and score today in the official result PDF on natboard.edu.in, and remember that 150 out of 300 is the line that decides Pass or Fail. If you have qualified, download your scorecard from 20 November 2026 and move to verification and registration without delay. If you have not, use the scorecard to find your weak papers and prepare for the next session — with a 22.87% pass percentage, you are in large company, and a focused second attempt is a well-trodden path.
