Frequently asked
- How many ai & ml hackathons in India are open for registration right now?
- 14 of the 14 upcoming ai & ml hackathons listed in India are still open for registration: 7 close within 7 days and 14 within 30 days. The very next one to close is Catalyst - Solo AI Hackathon, on 14 November 2026.
- Which ai & ml hackathons in India have the biggest prize pools?
- 14 of the 14 listed ai & ml hackathons publish a prize pool, the largest ₹40,000. 1 of those is 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?
- 9 of the 14 run online and can be entered from anywhere in India; 5 need you on site, most often in Bengaluru (2), Jaipur (1) and Mumbai (1). 14 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.
