KEA UGCET 2026: DigiLocker Access for CBSE, CISCE Students Enabled
KEA has directed CBSE, CISCE and other board students appearing for UGCET 2026 to enable DigiLocker access for automatic Class 12 marks verification, failing which results may be withheld.
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has issued an important update for students appearing in UGCET 2026 (KCET 2026). Candidates from CBSE, CISCE and other state boards are required to enable DigiLocker access to ensure automatic verification and fetching of their Class 12 marks. This step has been introduced to streamline the admission process and merit preparation process for engineering, pharmacy, agriculture, and other professional courses in Karnataka.
KEA uses 12th marks as a key factor in preparing the KCET merit list and ranking system. To avoid manual errors and delays, the authority has integrated DigiLocker, a secure government digital document platform.
How to Enable DigiLocker for UGCET 2026?
Step 1: Login to DigiLocker and download your class 12 marksheet
Step 2: Visit the Official KEA CET and sign in using your Credentials
Step 3: Allow the system to access DigiLocker so that the marks can be fetched automatically
Step 4: Check whether all academic details are correctly imported.
Step 5: Complete the submission process to finalize verification.
KEA has clearly stated that candidates who fail to update or verify their Class 12 marks through DigiLocker may face serious consequences. The KEA DigiLocker mandate for UGCET 2026 candidates is a crucial step in modernizing the admission process. Students from CBSE, CISCE, and other boards must complete the verification process on time to avoid complications in their results and counselling.
