The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the AIAPGET 2026 Advance City Intimation Slip for candidates appearing in the All India Ayush Post Graduate Entrance Test.
The city intimation facility is now active for registered candidates. Applicants can check their allotted examination city using their Application Number and Password through the official AIAPGET candidate portal.
According to the official NTA notice issued on August 13, 2026, the AIAPGET 2026 examination will be conducted on August 22, 2026.
Candidates should note that the advance city slip only provides information about the city in which their examination centre will be located. It is not the AIAPGET admit card.

Is AIAPGET 2026 City Intimation Slip Out?
Yes.
NTA has officially activated the advance examination-city intimation facility for AIAPGET 2026 candidates.
Candidates can now log in and check the city allotted to them for the August 22 entrance examination.
The official NTA AIAPGET portal currently lists Advance City Intimation for AIAPGET-2026 under both Latest News and Candidate Activity.
AIAPGET 2026 Exam Date
The AIAPGET examination will be conducted on:
August 22, 2026
The examination falls on a:
Saturday
NTA confirmed the examination date in its August 13 city-intimation notice.
Candidates should begin travel planning immediately if the allotted examination city is outside their current place of residence.
How to Download AIAPGET City Intimation Slip 2026
Candidates can follow these steps:
Open the official NTA AIAPGET examination portal.
Select Advance City Intimation for AIAPGET-2026.
Open the candidate login.
Enter the Application Number.
Enter the Password.
Submit the login details.
View the allotted examination city.
Download the city intimation slip.
Save a digital copy.
Use the allotted city information to make travel arrangements if required.
NTA has specifically stated that candidates should use their Application Number and Password to check or download the city slip.
What Details Does the AIAPGET City Slip Provide?
The main purpose of the advance city intimation slip is to inform candidates about the:
City where their examination centre will be located
This helps candidates plan:
Travel
Accommodation
Local transportation
Arrival time
Other exam-day logistics
The exact examination centre address will be provided later through the admit card.
AIAPGET City Slip Is Not the Admit Card
This is the most important clarification issued by NTA.
The official notice clearly states that the advance city intimation slip is:
NOT the Admit Card for the Entrance Examination.
Candidates should therefore distinguish between the two documents.
City Intimation Slip
Provides advance information about the allotted examination city.
AIAPGET Admit Card
Will contain final candidate-specific examination information, including the exact centre details and exam-day instructions.
Candidates must still download the admit card once NTA releases it.
When Will AIAPGET Admit Card 2026 Be Released?
NTA has not announced a specific admit-card date in the city-intimation notice.
The official notice states that:
The admit card will be issued in due course.
Candidates should therefore avoid treating unofficial admit-card dates circulating on third-party websites as confirmed.
They should continue checking the AIAPGET portal regularly.
Why Does NTA Release a City Slip Before the Admit Card?
The city intimation facility gives candidates more time to plan logistics before the exact examination-centre details are released.
For example, if a candidate is allotted:
Jaipur
the city slip allows them to arrange travel to Jaipur.
The admit card released later will provide the specific:
Examination centre
Address
Reporting details
Candidate instructions
This reduces the risk of candidates discovering a distant examination location only a few days before the test.
What Should Candidates Do After Downloading the City Slip?
Candidates should:
Confirm the allotted city.
Save the city slip.
Check travel distance.
Book transportation if necessary.
Arrange accommodation if required.
Continue monitoring NTA for the admit card.
Download the admit card immediately after release.
Check the exact examination centre.
Read all exam-day instructions.
Reach the examination city well in advance if travelling long distance.
What If the Allotted Exam City Is Far Away?
Candidates should begin planning immediately.
Check:
Train availability
Flight availability
Bus connectivity
Hotel availability
Distance from railway station or airport
Local transportation
Candidates should avoid waiting for the admit card before arranging long-distance travel if their city allocation already makes travel necessary.
Can Candidates Change the AIAPGET Exam City?
The city intimation notice does not announce a fresh city-change facility.
Candidates should therefore not assume that the allotted examination city can now be changed.
Unless NTA issues a separate official facility, candidates should prepare to appear in the city shown in their advance intimation.
What If the City Slip Does Not Download?
Candidates facing difficulties can first try:
Rechecking the Application Number
Re-entering the correct password
Refreshing the login page
Using another browser
Clearing browser cache
Using a stable internet connection
Trying again after a short interval
NTA has also provided official assistance for candidates facing difficulty in checking or downloading the city slip.
AIAPGET 2026 Helpdesk
According to NTA's official notice, candidates facing city-slip issues can contact the NTA Helpdesk at:
011-4075 9000
or
011-69227700
NTA has also provided a dedicated AIAPGET email support channel in its official notice.
Candidates should use official NTA support rather than sharing their login credentials with third parties.
What Is AIAPGET?
AIAPGET stands for:
All India Ayush Post Graduate Entrance Test
NTA has conducted the examination since 2019 on behalf of the Ministry of Ayush, NCISM and NCH with approval of the Ministry of Education.
AIAPGET is the national-level entrance examination for postgraduate AYUSH admissions.
Which Courses Are Covered Through AIAPGET?
AIAPGET 2026 serves as the common entrance examination for postgraduate courses in:
Ayurveda
Siddha
Unani
Homoeopathy
The examination is used for admission to eligible MD/MS postgraduate AYUSH programmes for the 2026-27 academic session.
AIAPGET Covers All India and State Quota Seats
NTA states that AIAPGET 2026 is used for admission to:
All India Quota seats
State Quota seats
in eligible postgraduate AYUSH programmes offered by participating:
Colleges
Institutions
Universities
Deemed Universities
across India.
No Separate AYUSH PG Entrance Test
The official AIAPGET portal states that eligible AYUSH institutions, universities and deemed universities will not conduct separate entrance examinations for admission to the covered postgraduate Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homoeopathy MD/MS programmes for the 2026-27 academic session.
AIAPGET therefore acts as the common national entrance test for these admissions.
AIAPGET Application Correction Already Closed
NTA had earlier provided candidates with an application-correction facility.
Candidates were allowed to make permitted corrections before the city-intimation stage.
With the city slip now released, candidates should focus on:
City Slip → Admit Card → Examination
rather than expecting another general application-editing window unless NTA announces one.
Check Candidate Details Carefully
After downloading the city slip, candidates should verify:
Candidate name
Application number
Examination
Allotted city
Other information displayed
If the candidate notices a serious discrepancy, they should contact NTA immediately.
Do Not Confuse Exam City With Exam Centre
Suppose the city slip says:
Exam City: Lucknow
This does not mean the candidate already knows the exact test location.
The final centre may be located anywhere within or around the designated examination-city framework.
Candidates should wait for the admit card before planning the final local route.
Admit Card Will Be Essential for Exam Entry
The city intimation slip should not be treated as the examination-entry document.
Candidates will need the final admit card and other documents specified by NTA to enter the examination centre.
The exact exam-day document checklist should be taken from the AIAPGET admit card and official NTA instructions once released.
Save Both Digital and Printed Copies
Candidates should save:
PDF copy
Screenshot
Printed copy
of the city intimation slip.
Although it is not the admit card, keeping the document can help with travel planning and resolving any city-allocation query.
AIAPGET 2026 Exam-Day Planning
Candidates travelling to another city should ideally:
Reach City → Locate Area → Check Local Travel → Reach Centre According to Admit Card Reporting Time
Do not calculate travel only according to the examination start time.
Security and verification procedures can require candidates to report significantly earlier.
Continue Preparation While Waiting for Admit Card
Candidates should avoid allowing travel arrangements to disrupt final preparation.
A sensible sequence is:
Check City → Make Travel Arrangements → Return to Revision
The final days should focus on:
Core subject revision
High-yield topics
Previous questions
Mock tests
Time management
Weak areas
Frequently confused concepts
Do Not Share Login Credentials
Candidates should never share:
Application Number
Password
OTP
Personal identity details
with unofficial websites, Telegram groups or individuals claiming to download the city slip on their behalf.
The official candidate portal is sufficient.
Beware of Fake Admit Card Links
Since the admit card is still awaited, fake links may appear claiming:
“AIAPGET admit card released”
“Download centre details early”
“Pay to change examination city”
“Get preferred examination centre”
Candidates should ignore these claims unless the update appears on the official NTA AIAPGET portal.
