The IELTS exam is conducted in 78 sites across India. More than 10,000 organisations in 140 countries recognise IELTS results, including educational institutions, employers, professional associations, and governments. Irrespective of the organisation that conducts the IELTS exam, the predetermined fee is INR 14,700 in India.
There are two types in which the IELTS exam is conducted: paper-based IELTS and computer-delivered IELTS. Candidates taking the paper-based IELTS will sit at a desk with question papers and answer sheets for the Reading, Listening, and Writing tests in an official IELTS test centre. For computer-delivered IELTS, official test centres are present in separate chambers to protect a test taker's privacy and CCTV cameras aid in the creation of a safe and secure testing environment.

How to Register for the IELTS Exam in India?
Candidates can register for their IELTS exam in three different methods:
-
Register online and pay the examination fee using a credit card.
-
In-person registration at any IDP branch or Input Node.
-
Register by courier and pay the test cost with a Demand Draft or an ICICI/HDFC deposit slip.
Documents Required for IELTS Exam Registration in India
International students taking the IELTS exam must have a current passport or a national ID. A passport is the primary form of identification necessary for registration. The same identification is required for the IELTS Speaking test at the official test centres.
When is the Easiest Month to Take the IELTS Test?
Every few months, the exam questions are updated. As a result, it is difficult to predict in which month IELTS will appear in its easiest form. Candidates should retake the exam after a few months, with extensive IELTS preparation, in order to improve their scores.
The results of IELTS do not depend on which month you decide to take the exam, but on having knowledge, being hardworking, and start preparing as soon as you register for the test. Select a centre and test date which is convenient for you while simultaneously giving yourself enough time to prepare well.
