After the XAT 2026 Answer key was out on January 09, 2026 if it is expected that the XAT 2026 result will be out this week. However this expectation about the XAT 2026 result date is not abrupt nor baseless. Here are the reasons behind the expectation that the XAT 2026 result will be out on January 16, 2026.

  1. In the last two years XAT results were out 12/13 days after the XAT exam date. This year XAT 2026 was held on January 4, 2026. So looking at that calculation one can expect that the XAT 2025 result date will be out on January 16, 2026.

  2. Also XAT results get published 7 days after the XAT answer key release last year. So as per those trends one could expect that the XAT 2026 result will be out around January 16, 2026 as XAT 2026 answer key was out on January 09, 2026.

  3. Apart from these in the XAT 2026 notification it was mentioned that the XAT 2026 result will be out on the 3rd week of January. So January 16, 2026 also fits that trend too.
