The Bombay High Court refused to restore Shubham Mangire’s provisional B.Tech admission after the CET Cell found that scorecards he relied upon contained percentiles inconsistent with official MAH-MHT-CET 2026 data. The court upheld the cancellation and said admission cannot be justified through an inauthentic examination record.
Mumbai, August 15, 2026: Extraordinary jurisdiction of this court cannot be used to protect an advantage obtained on the basis of an inauthentic document, observed the Bombay High Court while refusing to restore the provisional admission of a B.Tech student after finding that the scorecards he relied upon showed percentiles that were inconsistent with the official MAH-MHT-CET 2026 examination data.
A bench of Justices Riyaz Chagla and Farhan Dubash, on August 14, dismissed a petition filed by Shubham Mangire, who had challenged the cancellation of his provisional admission to a B.Tech Renewable Energy Engineering course.
Mangire had appeared for the MAH-MHT-CET 2026 PCM examination in April and May. Based on scorecards initially relied upon by him, he claimed an overall percentile of 78.874707 in the first attempt and 73.5482364 in the second attempt. He was subsequently granted provisional admission on June 23.
