The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has published the Kannada language test marks for Class C and Class D candidates who appeared for NEET UG 2026. This marks list is a critical document in the counselling process — your score determines your eligibility and ranking in subsequent seat allocation rounds. Class C and Class D are separate candidate categories in Karnataka's NEET UG counselling, each with their own merit lists and seat matrices. If you are a Class C or Class D candidate, you must check this list immediately to verify your marks and ensure your details are correct before the next counselling stage begins.
KEA has released the Kannada language test marks for Class C and D NEET UG 2026 candidates — check the official CET portal now to verify your score.
What is this marks list?
This is the official merit list of Kannada language test scores for Class C and Class D candidates in NEET UG 2026. In Karnataka's counselling system, candidates are divided into different classes based on their educational background and domicile status. Class C and Class D are two such categories, each with separate counselling rounds and seat allocations.
The Kannada language test is a qualifying examination that some candidates must clear as part of Karnataka's admission process. Your marks in this test, combined with your NEET UG score, determine your overall merit ranking and eligibility for seat allocation in MBBS and BDS colleges across Karnataka.
Who should check this list?
If you are a Class C or Class D candidate who appeared for NEET UG 2026 and took the Kannada language test, you must check this marks list. Class C typically includes candidates who studied in Kannada-medium schools in Karnataka, while Class D includes other eligible candidates. Your classification was determined during the registration process based on your educational qualifications and domicile.
Even if you are unsure which class you belong to, visit the CET portal and search for your name or registration number. Verifying your marks now prevents disputes or delays later in the counselling process.

How this marks list affects your counselling
Your Kannada language test marks are combined with your NEET UG score to create your final merit ranking within your class (C or D). This ranking determines the order in which you are called for seat allocation. A higher Kannada language test score improves your overall merit position and increases your chances of getting a seat in your preferred college and course.
The marks list is published before the next counselling round begins. Once you have verified your marks, you will proceed to the seat allocation stage, where colleges are assigned based on merit, your choices, and available seats. Do not assume your marks are final until you have personally checked them on the portal.
Important points to remember
This marks list is specific to Class C and Class D candidates only. If you are a Class A or Class B candidate, your marks list will be published separately. Do not confuse your class with another — check your registration details to confirm which class you belong to.
The publication of this marks list does not mean counselling has begun. It is one step in the process. KEA will announce the dates for the next counselling round (seat allocation, choice filling, etc.) separately. Keep checking the CET portal for further announcements.
Your marks in the Kannada language test are valid only for NEET UG 2026. If you do not secure a seat this year, you will need to appear for the test again in the next NEET UG cycle if you wish to participate in Karnataka counselling.
