The National Testing Agency (NTA) has revealed the outcome of the National Institute of Fashion Technology Entrance Examination, known as NIFTEE 2025 (stage 1). Candidates can view their results at exams.nta.ac.in/NIFT/.
This entrance exam is intended for admission to undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD courses at NIFTs for the academic year 2025-26.
The NIFTEE stage 1 for Bachelor of Design (B.Des.), Master of Design (M.Des.), Master of Fashion Management (M.F.M.), Master of Fashion Technology (M.F.Tech.), and Lateral Entry (B.Des. and B.F.Tech.) took place on February 9, 2025 (Sunday) at 91 centers across 81 cities in India. The exam was conducted in both Hindi and English. Depending on the program, the tests were administered in either Computer-Based Test (CBT) or Paper-Based Test (PBT) formats.
NTA has stated that the results for NIFT stage 1 have been declared for all programs, except the Bachelor of Fashion Technology (B.F.Tech.). The results for this program will be published separately later, alongside the final results for all undergraduate and postgraduate programs. NTA also mentioned that there will not be a second phase examination for the B.F.Tech. entrance test.
