JEE Main Result 2026 Live: Session 1 Scorecard Updates

JEE Main Result 2026 Live Updates: Session 1 Scorecards Awaited, Final Answer Key Coming Soon

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has not yet announced the JEE Main 2026 Session 1 results, leading to anticipation among thousands of candidates. Students who appeared for the exam will be able to access and download their scorecards once the results are officially released on the authorised websites — jeemain.nta.nic.in, nta.nic.in, and examinationservices.nic.in.

Officials have stated that the delay is due to the ongoing scrutiny of answer sheets and the thorough verification of candidates’ responses. The NTA is prioritising accuracy and fairness in the evaluation process before making the results public. Once finalised, the direct result link will be made live on all official platforms.

Final Answer Key to Be Published With Results

Alongside the results, the NTA will issue the final answer key, which will help candidates compare their responses and estimate their scores based on the official marking guidelines. The final key will be released only after all challenges to the provisional answer key have been carefully reviewed and resolved.

Students can calculate their tentative scores by adding four marks for each correct answer and subtracting one mark for every incorrect response, while unanswered questions will not carry any penalty.
