- 29 of the 33 upcoming hackathons listed in India are still open for registration: 12 close within 7 days and 19 within 30 days. The very next one to close is Hack<N>Pitch, on 12 November 2026.
- Which hackathons in India have the biggest prize pools?
- 33 of the 33 listed hackathons publish a prize pool, the largest $550. 2 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.

- 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.
