When Will CTET 2026 Result Be Released?
Following the CTET 2026 exam, the results are expected to be released in the last week of March 2026 or early April 2026. They will be available on the official website ctet.nic.in and DigiLocker.
After passing the CTET exam, candidates become eligible to apply for teaching positions in central government schools such as Kendriya Vidyalayas, Navodaya Vidyalayas, and Army Public Schools. This certificate is also a mandatory qualification for teacher recruitment by the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) and several union territories. Many private schools now prefer CTET-qualified candidates for teaching positions. The validity of the CTET certificate has now been extended to a lifetime, meaning that once a candidate passes the exam, they can apply for future government teacher recruitments throughout their lives.
