Frequently asked
- How many hackathons in India are open for registration right now?
- 66 of the 83 upcoming hackathons listed in India are still open for registration: 27 close within 7 days and 60 within 30 days. The very next one to close is CodeZen India 2026 - National Hackathon, on 13 November 2026.
- Which hackathons in India have the biggest prize pools?
- 45 of the 83 listed hackathons publish a prize pool, the largest ₹10L. 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 hackathons I can join from anywhere in India?
- 44 of the 83 run online and can be entered from anywhere in India; 39 need you on site, most often in Delhi NCR (7), Mumbai (4) and Hyderabad (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.
