Around 11.23 lakh candidates registered for the Computer-Based Test (CBT) of JEE Main.
The JEE Main score is used to determine eligibility for JEE Advanced, which serves as the gateway for admission to undergraduate programmes in engineering, architecture, and planning at various institutions across India.
The final answer key is also likely to be published alongside the results. The final scores will be calculated based on the revised answer key after reviewing objections raised by candidates.

JEE Mains Result 2026 LIVE: Candidates have been advised to move ahead with the next stage of admissions, including registration for JEE Advanced and participation in JoSAA counselling, based on their final scores released by the National Testing Agency (NTA).
As no re-evaluation or rechecking facility is available, the declared results will be considered final for all further admission processes.
Students are therefore expected to proceed with counselling and other admission-related formalities according to their ranks and eligibility.
In JEE Main 2026, Mallavarapu Aasna from Telangana emerged as the top performer, making a notable mark in the results. She was the only female candidate to secure a perfect 100 percentile in this session.
The remaining 25 top percentile ranks were secured by male candidates, highlighting her standout position among this year’s top scorers.
JEE Mains Result 2026 LIVE: If two or more candidates secure the same overall NTA score in Paper 1, the tie is broken through a step-by-step comparison of subject-wise performance.
First, the candidate with a higher score in Mathematics is ranked above others. If the tie still remains, Physics scores are considered next, followed by Chemistry scores.
If candidates are still equal after comparing subject scores, accuracy becomes the deciding factor. The candidate with fewer incorrect responses in relation to correct answers across all subjects is given a higher rank.
If needed, this accuracy comparison is also applied separately in Mathematics, then Physics, and then Chemistry.
In the rare case that all these criteria fail to break the tie, the candidates are assigned the same rank.
The JEE Main merit list, scores, and results will also be used by various central and state government bodies, in accordance with their respective eligibility criteria, norms, regulations, guidelines, or rules.
NTA Scores are normalised values calculated across multiple shifts and reflect the relative performance of candidates within a specific shift. The raw marks are converted to a scale ranging from 0 to 100 for each shift. It is important to note that the NTA Score is not the same as the percentage of marks obtained, as per HT.
The NTA Score of a candidate is calculated using the following formula:
100 multiplied by the number of candidates in the ‘shift’ who scored equal to or less than that candidate, divided by the total number of candidates who appeared in that 'shift'.
The cut-off for the EWS category ranges from 93.4105172 to 82.4164528. The OBC category cut-off falls between 93.4105172 and 80.9232583.
