MAH CET 2026 Registration Deadline Extended: Apply for MCA & MHMCT by February 18

The State Common Entrance Test Cell, Maharashtra, has extended the registration deadline for MAH CET 2026 for candidates seeking admission to Master of Computer Applications and Master of Hotel Management and Catering Technology programmes for the academic year 2026–27.

The decision was announced through an official notice issued on February 9, 2026, giving aspirants additional time to complete their online applications. So, those who have missed their deadline in completing their application can now complete their registration.

Revised Registration Dates for MAH CET 2026

The CET Cell has updated the registration timelines for both entrance examinations:

The registration portal will remain open until February 18, 2026, and candidates must complete both the online application form and confirmation process within this timeframe.

Reason Behind the Extension

The main reason behind this extension is to mainly provide relief to the candidates who did not get the chance to apply for the application before, and can have the chance to register again. Moreover, the shift in date is expected to be beneficial for a large number of students.

The MAH CET 2026 for MCA and MHMCT courses will be conducted at multiple examination centres across Maharashtra for the 2026–27 academic session.
