FMGE October 2026 Result Declared; Scorecards From 20 November

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has declared the result of the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) October 2026. Its notice of 10 November 2026, on the FMGE results page, says the result, including the marks each candidate obtained, can be seen on natboard.edu.in. The exam was held on 31 October 2026 across the country.

FMGE is the screening test that Indian citizens and Overseas Citizens of India with a medical degree from outside India must pass before a State Medical Council or the National Medical Commission registers them to practise. Under the FMGE October 2026 information bulletin, a candidate passes with at least 150 marks out of 300, and there is no re-totalling, re-evaluation or grace marks.

What the result notice says

• Result file: the result is a digitally signed PDF, valid only with the NBEMS officer's signature. It stays on the notice board until the next FMGE result.
• Answer key review: subject experts reviewed every question after the exam. Where a question was technically wrong, all candidates who took the exam got the marks; where a question had two correct answers, candidates who chose either got the marks.
• Scorecards: individual scorecards can be downloaded from natboard.edu.in on or after 20 November 2026, and only for six months. NBEMS will not provide scorecards after that, so candidates should save a copy.
• Pass certificates: qualified candidates will get the FMGE pass certificate in person, after their identity and documents are checked. NBEMS will publish the schedule separately. The result is subject to this in-person verification.
• Registration: the scorecard cannot be used in place of the pass certificate when applying to a State Medical Council for registration. NBEMS sends the councils a digitally signed result directly.
• Withheld results: the results of thirty candidates have been withheld, and NBEMS is telling them why by email.

Candidature stays provisional: if a candidate is later found ineligible under the information bulletin, it can be cancelled even after the result or the pass certificate is issued.

What to do now

Check your result on the NBEMS results page, then download and keep your scorecard once it is available from 20 November.
