CMAT Photo & Signature Size
The CMAT (NTA) portal requires a photo of 800×1000 px (max 200 KB, JPEG) and a signature of 800×300 px (max 30 KB). Use the three steps below to crop, resize, and compress both — entirely in your browser, nothing is uploaded.
Requirements change each exam cycle. Always verify from the official cmat.nta.nic.in notification before submitting.
