AP PGECET 2026 Final Phase Reporting Extended to November 4

The last date for AP PGECET 2026 final phase reporting has been extended to November 4, 2026. The notice appears on the Andhra Pradesh Common Admissions Portal (cap.apcfss.in) under Technical PG Admissions for AP PGECET and GATE/GPAT 2026. It says the extension applies to both self-joining by candidates and physical reporting at colleges, and cites Cyclone Arnab as the reason.

What the Extension Covers

• Counselling: AP PGECET and GATE/GPAT 2026 Technical PG Admissions (M.Tech, M.Pharm and allied programmes)
• Phase: Final Phase
• Activities extended: Online self-joining and physical reporting at the allotted college
• New last date: November 4, 2026
• Official portal: cap.apcfss.in

Who Should Report

The extension is for candidates who have been allotted a seat in the final phase. Anyone who does not complete both self-joining and college reporting by the new deadline risks losing the allotted seat. Candidates who have already reported do not need to repeat the process.
