Frequently asked
- How many ai & ml hackathons in India are open for registration right now?
- 81 of the 105 upcoming ai & ml hackathons listed in India are still open for registration: 36 close within 7 days and 74 within 30 days. The very next one to close is CodeZen India 2026 - National Hackathon, on 13 November 2026.
- Which ai & ml hackathons in India have the biggest prize pools?
- 51 of the 105 listed ai & ml hackathons publish a prize pool, the largest $46,000. 3 of those are quoted in a currency other than the rupee; the card shows the organizer's own figure and the rupee value is only used to sort them into prize bands.
- Are there online ai & ml hackathons I can join from anywhere in India?
- 57 of the 105 run online and can be entered from anywhere in India; 48 need you on site, most often in Bengaluru (9), Delhi NCR (7) and Mumbai (4). 83 say in their own description that students may enter.
- How do I register for a hackathon listed here?
- Every listing here links back to the organizer's registration page — AllEvents, Devfolio, Devpost, HackerEarth, Luma, TechMeetups and Unstop — and registration happens there, not on Jamao. Nothing is behind a login and no listing is paid placement. Running one? Claim your listing from its page, or add it free at jamao.in/create, and it stops being overwritten by the import.
