CSEET Result: Pass Marks, Date Checker and Next Steps

You pass the CSEET when you score at least 40 out of 100 in each of the four papers and at least 200 out of 400 in total, both in a single attempt, under ICSI's restructured CSEET announcement. Meeting only one of the two conditions is a fail.

The exam has three written papers and one OMR paper. OMR means optical mark recognition: you shade your answers on a sheet that a machine reads. The restructured format began with the June 2026 session and is held in February, June and October, according to the same ICSI announcement.

Run this test on your own marks. These four rows are our worked examples, not real candidates.

The two tests catch different mistakes. The floor catches a lopsided candidate with one weak paper (B and D). The total catches a flat, low one (C).

Our recommendation is to aim for 55 in every paper. That gives a total of 220, which is 15 marks above the floor and 20 above the aggregate. A single bad paper then does not decide the outcome.

On result day, check the subject-wise marks first, because recent sessions have shown them with the result. Session-by-session odds are on our CSEET pass percentage page.

As of 9 November 2026, ICSI's revised schedule, as reported by Careers360, lists 15 November 2026 as the October 2026 CSEET result date, which is a Sunday. Confirm it on icsi.edu. The papers were held on 1, 3, 5 and 6 October. The date comes from an ICSI council decision of 17 to 18 March 2026 that replaced the earlier November-end window (DekhoCampus).

ICSI had not announced the October release time as of 9 November 2026. The June result came out at 2 pm on 15 July 2026 (Careers360), and ICSI's notice will confirm the October time.

To check your result:

Every window after the CSEET result runs from the declaration date, except the Executive registration cut-offs, which ICSI sets separately. Add the offsets in this table to your own declaration date.

This is our model, built from the June 2026 pattern. The dates in ICSI's result notice for your session are the ones that count.

Verification cost ₹250 per subject, non-refundable. Answer-script inspection cost ₹450 per subject and certified copies ₹500 per subject. All three figures were set after the June 2026 result (Careers360). Candidates applied for verification through ICSI's SMASH student portal, as the same report notes.

The CSEET result is valid for one year from declaration for CS Executive registration (ICSI).

ICSI has published the Executive cut-offs and can extend them. A group is one of the two modules of the Executive exam.

Counted from a 15 November result, that is 15 days to the both-groups cut-off and 77 days to the one-group cut-off (15 days left in November, plus 31 in December, plus 31 in January). The 21-day verification window is longer than the both-groups gap. Waiting on a recheck can cost you the both-groups cut-off.

Do one thing first for each outcome: register if you passed, decide on verification within days if you missed narrowly, and book the next sitting if you failed.

If you passed

Choose your target Executive exam first, then work backwards from its cut-off. Our CS Executive exam date page has the timetable. Have these ready before the result so registration takes minutes. These are the upload requirements on ICSI's CSEET-passed registration page:

If you missed narrowly

Apply for verification only when the gap is small. Our recommendation: apply if one paper scores 36 to 39, or the total is 195 to 199 with every paper at 40 or above. Each subject costs ₹250 and the fee is not refunded.

If you failed

Plan for the next sitting and prepare all four papers. The pass condition is tested in a single attempt, and ICSI's restructured CSEET announcement makes no provision for exemption or carry forward of marks, so marks from one sitting do not combine with another, as we explain on our CSEET pass percentage page. Start with your weakest paper, since that is the paper that fails candidates. Before buying notes, use our CSEET study material check to confirm your files match the current edition.
