Frequently Asked Questions

What is the passing score for NISM Series V-A?

The passing score is 50 out of 100 marks (50%). The exam has 100 multiple-choice questions worth 1 mark each, and the official NISM exam itself has no negative marking.

Is there negative marking in the NISM Series V-A exam?

No — neither the real NISM exam nor BullWiser's free mock test has negative marking. Wrong answers score zero, just like the actual exam, so there's no penalty for attempting every question.

What is the NISM Series V-A exam fee?

₹1,500 plus GST and payment gateway charges (roughly ₹1,770 total per attempt), paid directly to NISM. There's no discount on repeat attempts — confirm the current fee on NISM's official website before registering.

How many times can I attempt the exam?

There's no limit. You can retake the NISM Series V-A exam as many times as needed — each attempt just needs a fresh registration and full fee payment.

How long is the certificate valid?

3 years from the date of passing. Renew by retaking the exam or completing a NISM-approved CPE program in the final 12 months before expiry.

Is the BullWiser mock test really free?

Yes — one full 120-minute mock (100 MCQs, NISM-accurate scoring) is free with no signup, and all 2,000+ chapter-wise practice questions are free. A ₹199 condensed-notes PDF is an optional add-on.
